People like Lisa who have innate ability to blend, as described,traditional art, comic art, computer science, theater and animation, are the people who in the future will affect almost every aspect of our lives. It is becoming more and more common to find the disciplines listed above working together, wether it be in art, entertainment or education. It is important to support those who are pioneering fusing of art and technology.

What I also think, to piggy-back off of Isabella's comments, is that Lisa also must be a fantastic collaborator. Though the idea of blending art forms is an exciting one artistically, we also have to remember that it is also a skill to be able to will something like this into fruition instead of simply keeping the project conceptual.
