One more thing, this past week there was a live Q&A with some animators from the Disney, fresh from their work on Chicken Little. Jason Ryan, a super cool mentor who’s with the class ahead of me (sigh) was there, answering questions about the movie and his involvement in it. If I remember correctly he was a lead for animating Chicken Little himself, meaning he had a large role to play in define the acting choices for the character, as well as animating some choice scenes. <\/p>\n
Joining him was Clay Kaytis<\/a> who not only animated on the film (mostly Buck Cluck) but also produces the very cool Animation Podcast.<\/a> <\/p>\n It was neat to hear them talk about the different way they approached animating a shot, the kind of tools and pipelines they have at the studio, quotas, and the future of Disney animation. Thanks AM, for hooking us up! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" One more thing, this past week there was a live Q&A with some animators from the Disney, fresh from their work on Chicken Little.
