#ronandjohn

Here's a drawing I did for John Musker's retirement party. I feel fortunate to have gotten the chance to work with John before he retired. Moana will always be special to me, as my memories of the production go hand-in-hand with those of the preparation and birth of our daughter. I look forward to showing Kina her Production Baby credit, listed with Mommy and Daddy and co-director, master caricaturist, and Disney legend, John Musker. #neverforgetOGheihei #johnmusker #ronandjohn #moana #disney #disneyanimation #burbank #watercolor #pua #heihei (at Pickwick Gardens)

Here is a #blastfromthepast. I cant believe i found these haha. About a decade ago I was an #apprenticeanimator on #PrincessandtheFrog. Here are some shots I animated on the #movie. Rough #animation and the final version. I #animated a lot of tiny frogs throughout this film haha. I was a beginner and totally freaked out that I was actually working on a hand drawn #Disney Feature film. It was a dream come true. I worked with #MarkHenn through most of the production since he was the lead on #princessTiana. I worked with Randy Haycock on #Naveen as well as with #EricGoldberg on a couple of Louis shots. Very small background Louis shots haha. It was such an awesome experience. #ronandjohn were directors on this film and I finally got to work with them again recently on #Moana! #animator #2danimation #traditionalanimation #handdrawnanimation (at Walt Disney Animation Studios)
