His engaging conversation always makes me look at things in a new way. I feel like I level up both as an animator and a human, after I chat with him. Having worked on Open Season and Robots as an animator, Oddbods as co-creator and the originally director, Surfs Up and Ice Age 2 in pre-production James now continues to teach and inspire the next generation of animators at Animation Mentor and Paint masterpieces (they really are, I’ve seen them!). Clearly this was a really fun chat for me, I thoroughly enjoyed it, I hope you do too. </p><p><a href="http://www.animatedspirit.com/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Animated Spirit – Art, Animation and Film Analyis</a><br /><a href="http://www.animationmentor.com/mentors/james-chiang/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Animation Mentor Profile</a></p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.toontalkspodcast.com/?feed=rss2&p=584</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>5</slash:comments><enclosure url="http://media.blubrry.com/toontalkspodcast/traffic.libsyn.com/toontalkspodcast/Part_One_and_Two_edited_FINAL.mp3" length="126167077" type="audio/mpeg" /> <itunes:subtitle>It is such a pleasure to be able to share with you all, the inspiration I get every time I chat with James.

Ariel, Pocahontas, Beast, Aladdin, Rapunzel… Tarzan. All of these stirring vast amounts of emotion like no other character before. Glen really does animate from the inside out.<br />So you can imagine my exhilaration (and nerves) as I got a few moments to ask his advice about animation. I tried hard to find questions that would reap the most beneficial information. I feel this interview is unique in that, we drive right into the heart of animation to try and discover what is at the foundation of making a legendary animator. </p><p><a href="http://believeentertainmentgroup.com/portfolio-item/dear-basketball/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">The making of Dear Basketball</a></p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O9CG_PoEWCg" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Duet</a></p><p><a href="http://keaneart.tumblr.com/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Keane Art</a></p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.toontalkspodcast.com/?feed=rss2&p=577</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>3</slash:comments><enclosure url="http://media.blubrry.com/toontalkspodcast/toontalkspodcastcom.ipage.com/PODCASTS/Glen%20Keane_final_2017.mp3" length="26193456" type="audio/mpeg" /> <itunes:subtitle>This was my second time meeting Glen, I don’t mind telling you, that my first time I was too shy to talk.

We talk about the challenges of creating music for Spotlight Stories’s 360 short films Vs music for regular film. We also chat about his production company Pollen as well as the charity work he does with Cambodian Living Arts. Scot has collaborated with the animation genius’s that are Glen Keane, Doug Sweetland, Jan Pinkava, Mark Oftedal and Shannon Tindle and he has won AICE’s 2015 Best Music Award for his work on Duet. As he says himself, anything he can stay about music, is applicable to any creative field, so no doubt all creatives will find some inspiration in this episode.

Pete was here in Vancouver and Josh was up every other week or so. It was a spot of luck that Alan was down on one of the weeks we had Josh – I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to grab all three for the podcast! Josh is just starting out as a supervisor, Alan has some experience behind him now with Hotel Transylvania 2 (he’s now supervising on Smurfs) and Pete is a veteran animator, who has supervised on a number of movies to date. </p><p>Enjoy the podcast folks, feel free to comment.

He also worked with Dale Bear at Bear animation working on Who Framed Rodger Rabbit. Later animating on Space Jam at Warner’s, Supervising at Disney on Kurchak as well as the Baboons & Baby Baboons, in Tarzan Pacha, in Emperor’s New Groove, Pearl in Home on The Range, Dr. Facilier in Princes and the Frog, Kanga, Roo and Piglet in Winnie the Pooh … the list goes on :) He directed Bebe’s Kids (Character based off Robin Harris’ stand up act), and co-created and directed the tv show Proud Family. He’s currently directing at Paramount Pictures.<br />Bruce’s personality makes him instantly likeable, unafraid to be himself and proud of his background and cutler which to me, makes him all the more admirable. I clearly had a wonderful time talking with Bruce, I hope you have a wonderful time listening. </p><p><a href="http://www.penciltestdepot.com/2012/01/piglet-by-bruce-smith.html" target="_blank">Bruce’s Piglet Test on the Pencil Test Depot</a></p><p><a href="http://livlily.blogspot.ca/2010/10/bruce-w-smith.html" target="_blank">More pencil tests on the Living Lines blog</a></p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.toontalkspodcast.com/?feed=rss2&p=504</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments><enclosure url="http://media.blubrry.com/toontalkspodcast/traffic.libsyn.com/toontalkspodcast/BruceSmith_Podcast_2015.mp3" length="89583888" type="audio/mpeg" /> <itunes:subtitle>Bruce is one of the most talented and charismatic animators you’ll find in the industry, what a pleasure to talk with him!

The list of movies and commercials he has worked on, is the longest list of anyone’s I’ve seen!! </p><p>We discuss his career and the changes he has seen in the industry, including the change over from the Nine Old Men and the turn of films, from traditional animation to CG animation. For me, this chat was delightful and insightful. I hope it is for you too!

It’s truly an honour to have such a wonderful person on the show.<br /><span id="more-469"></span><br />Shawn Kelly set his sights on working at Industrial Light and Magic (ILM) at age five when he saw the movie Star Wars in the cinema with is father. After a seemly random thread of events he started studying under the tutelage of animators Bill Hennes and John Root, he studied drawing and computer software throughout high school, attended community college, and Academy of Art University in San Francisco.</p><p>A summer internship at ILM introduced Shawn to another influential mentor, animation director Wayne Gilbert. It was through Wayne that Shawn realized that he wasn’t learning what he needed at school. Shawn left the academy in 1996 for a job as a character animator at former video game and educational company Presage Software, and continued his studies with Gilbert twice a week. They became very close friends and remain so, today.</p><p>It took about two years but Shawn fulfilled his lifelong dream and landed a job at ILM in 1998 and since that time, he has worked on numerous films including War of the Worlds, for which he animated tripods and probes; Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, where he helped develop and animate the vulture droids and animated Yoda in a pivotal swordfight; and Rango, where he was the Lead Animator for both the Mayor of Dirt and the Spirit of the West. He also worked as Lead Animator on all three Transformers movies. Kelly’s credits feature 23 films including Hulk, the Star Wars prequels, AI: Artificial Intelligence, and The Avengers.</p><p>Not to forget, he’s also co founder of Animation Mentor, the first on line animation school. </p><p>So as you can see we had lots to talk about and Shawn was incredibly generous with his time. I’m so grateful to have him on the show.</p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.toontalkspodcast.com/?feed=rss2&p=469</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>5</slash:comments><enclosure url="http://media.blubrry.com/toontalkspodcast/traffic.libsyn.com/toontalkspodcast/Shawn_Kelly_final_2015.mp3" length="120636409" type="audio/mpeg" /> <itunes:subtitle>Shawn inspired me to do things I never would have, my life would be so much less had I not listen.
