From www.moviesonline.ca ...

Q: Mr. Van Dyke can you talk about your interest in computer animation?

    Dick: It started out as a hobby about 15 years ago when Amiga first came out with a little machine that would actually do animation and I’ve been doing it ever since. Now I have a room full of equipment and I’m struggling to keep up with technology, but it’s an addiction. It is so much fun. I’ve gotten pretty good. I’ve been actually offered a job as an animator and I realize the minute there’s a deadline, the fun’s over. So I can play as long as I want to with it and I have some good stuff in there, but I’ve never sold any or even showed any of it.

Q: Would you sell it?

    Dick: Would I sell it? No, I wouldn’t. I don’t think I’d sell it. I’m not that good. You look at this movie and you have a long way to go.

Nearly $1k (about £500). That's impressively cheap if I'm honest.
