South Park started as a little video Christmas card.

I love vampire stories. That's why I did the movie. Women especially were taken with that movie-even more so when it came out on video.

All the information you could want is constantly streaming at you like a runaway truck - books newspaper stories Web sites apps how-to videos this article you're reading even entire magazines devoted to single subjects like charcuterie or wedding cakes or pickles.

I think the thing we see is that as people are using video games more they tend to watch passive TV a bit less. And so using the PC for the Internet playing video games is starting to cut into the rather unbelievable amount of time people spend watching TV.

I remember the first time I saw the 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' video. I will never forget that day. I just wanted to see Kurt Cobain's face. I had a feeling he was very cute. But I couldn't see his face. When I finally did see him he was even cuter than I imagined!

Technology is permeating every single thing we do... And to the extent that we can better expose our young people to all the different ways that technology can be used not just for video games or toys we're planning for the future.

Advancements in technology have become so commonplace that sometimes we forget to stop and think about how incredible it is that a girl on her laptop in Texas can see photos and cell phone video in real time that a young college student has posted of a rally he's at in Iran.

As a matter of fact when compression technology came along we thought the future in 1996 was about voice. We got it wrong. It is about voice video and data and that is what we have today on these cell phones.

I carry my own film guys with me now. People think that's a huge expense but with technology like it is these days it's not. You can film videos and everything with a Canon Mark II and shoot a movie. They're doing it for next to nothing by comparison. I can do ten videos for a project for the price of one mainstream video in the past.

In an age of social media and content being key it's important to change the mold where you have $100 000 to $150 000 for one video. I hired some guys that are young just out of college and we used some new far-less-expensive cameras and technology to make videos.
