The Animation Podcast: Talent Development and Summer Internship Programs

 

The Animation Podcast is a great collection of classic animator interviews.  I have listened to them all and if you have a long car ride coming up, download them all for the ride;  it will be well worth it.  The latest interview is very interesting which explores Disney's Talent Development Program.  Put it on your iPhone today so you have it for that next traffic jam.  - Cornell

In the latest podcast: 

“You learn everything from every production that you’re on, even if it’s, you know, a commercial that lasts three weeks. You learn something from it.”

It’s finally here – my exclusive podcast for Animation Mentor! It marks a few firsts: my first podcast in over a year; my first roundtable with five guests; my first women guests! Since this is an exclusive, you’ll need to head over to Animation Mentor to listen and download the show. My focus for this show was to grab five artists at Disney who recently went through the Talent Development Program at Disney and talk about how they got there and what it’s like to work at the studio. My guests include Story Artist Jeremy Spears, Visual Development Artist Lorelay Bove, Rough Inbetweener/Jack of all Trades Joe Pitt, 2D Animator Sarah Airriess, and CG Animator (and Animation Mentor alumni) Kira Lehtomaki. Please leave your comments and feedback on this this post. I’d love to hear what you think.
