There's hair, costume, makeup in the form of paint, gaffers, electricians. So there's the same sense of real stuff, real light.

Live-action is just an utterly different world, and I'm not a public enough persona to be big and loud at the front of the ship. I'd rather more quietly interact with the artisan animators.
