I Like Helping People Achieve Their Dreams

I Did 40 Voices For Chris Wedge, The Director Of The First Film, Before Coming Up With The Version We Used. He Was Hard To Please, I Don't Know Why. I Gave Him Really Slow Talking Voices. Then I Thought Perhaps Sid Could Be An Indian Sounding Sloth. To Find Out More About My Character, I Watched Footage Of Sloths. I Discovered That The Food They Store In Their Pouches Rots And Ferments And Half The Time They're Drunk.

Bryan Cranston Has Got Such An Incredible Light Touch. He Comes In Egoless, But With Bold Opinions, And He Wants To Play. He Wants To Play. And That's What I've Seen In Great Actors All My Life And What I've Always Tried To Nurture And Keep In Myself Is That Joy Of Playing.

I Walked Around My Apartment With Food In My Mouth Asking Myself: "how Do I Come Up With This Voice?" Then I Found The Voice. I Called The Director And Said On The Phone: "guess Who You're Talking To Chris? Sid, That's Right Sid!" And That's How I Came Up With The Voice. That's A True Story.

So Many People, My Friends And Family, Were All Saying, "you're So Funny. Why Don't You Become A Comedian Or An Actor?" But It Wasn't A Reality At The Time, It Wasn't A Road That Latin People Were Accepted In.

I Was Working At Kentucky Fried Chicken When My Math Teacher Said, "you're Failing In School, You're Messing Up, Why Don't You Just Try This?" I Said, "alright, Let Me Try It," And I Started Going To Acting Classes And I Loved It. I Thought, "i May Not Make It But I Love Doing It."
