  • Remarks Of CFTC Commissioner Brian Quintenz Before The Commodity Markets Council State Of The Industry 2018 Conference - Drawing Without An Eraser

    Date 30/01/2018

    Thank you for that very kind introduction.

    Before I begin, let me quickly say that the views contained in this speech are my own and do not represent the views of the Commission. I’m very pleased to be speaking here with you today at the Commodity Markets Council’s annual State of the Industry conference.

    Over the winter holiday, my children and I went on a Disney Cruise. I’m not going to tell you who enjoyed it more, but I did want to share a story from our trip. One of the on-board activities we did together after breaking my children away from the 24 hour self-serve ice cream bar was a Disney animating class. To start the class, everyone was given drawing paper and a pencil, and we followed along step by step as the teacher sketched out Winnie the Poo and Tigger. When my drawing started to look more like a snowman than a Poo bear and I needed to revise it, I suddenly realized my pencil didn’t have an eraser. I quickly looked around to see if I could borrow someone else’s, but none of the other pencils had erasers either. The teacher explained to us that when Walt Disney first organized his animating studio, he removed all the erasers from pencils. His idea was that he wanted his artists to be deliberate in their sketching but to also not be fearful of mistakes – that it was more powerful to see mistakes concretely on paper and use them to “build” the final result or character.
