As a production supervisor for Walt Disney Animation Studios, I manage the artists and the shots throughout a film. I work with the different departments here in Animation to plan how and who will get the movie done. I work with anywhere from five to 100 people on a project. There's a production supervisor for each department on a feature, so I partner with a handful of other production supervisors on each film. What's great is that we really get to be a part of everything and see the movie through from the very beginning to the final cut.
My proudest moment is when a film is completed and I'm able to sit in a theater and watch the film with people who haven't seen the movie yet. I love watching how they react to what we've been able to do. It's worth all the hard work.
I love the projects that we do – the quality of the projects. And I'm so proud of everything that comes out of the Studio. I work with top-notch people; the caliber of the talent here is incredible. It's great to work with such smart and talented people because they really challenge you.
Going to the Tangled scoring session was an amazing experience. We had a full orchestra there and they were laying down the tracks for the soundtrack to the show. It was amazing to see. I'm also amazed when I see the work we do appear in the Disney theme parks. Seeing kids so excited to meet Rapunzel in Fantasyland, after we had spent so much time with her as just a drawing, that really feels pretty incredible.
