Andrew delivers an outstanding talk on storytelling, and is a really engaging speaker. He has worked on some pretty popular animated films. It is definitely worth taking the time to watch.  Two points that I really love: We should give our audiences 2+2, not 4; and his definition of drama, which is “anticipation mingled with uncertainty.” I leave the rest for you to watch.

From the description:

Filmmaker Andrew Stanton (“Toy Story,” “WALL-E”) shares what he knows about storytelling — starting at the end and working back to the beginning. (Contains graphic language [mainly in the first joke] …)
