  • In contrast to most directors, Burr was regularly insistent on prolonging recording sessions out to the eight-hour maximum defined by the Screen Actor's Guild - whether, to quote Hal Rayle, "it was necessary or not." That habit of his, it is said, was a major contributing factor to the 1987 animation voice artist strike; one of the striking actors' primary demands was the reduction of the maximum session length to four hours. Maurice LaMarche had less-kind words, suggesting that all Burr really wanted was for the actor to "parrot" the lines back to him as he himself would have performed them.

Burr's direction style was very perfectionist, and he would often do many takes of a single line until he thought it had been nailed. This was often very exhausting for the voice actors, who often tell stories of Burr in interviews. They do agree that in the end, he created a quality product that satisfied everyone, and most think back on these sessions fondly despite their rigor.
