A place to write about my own Disney experiences and to comment on the World of Disney.

  1. Drawn to Life Event with Don Hahn, Andreas Deja and others.

    Wednesday night June 10, Sunnie and I headed to Woodbury University in Burbank to see a panel discussion about Walt Stanchfield. This Walt was someone I was not familiar with until I did a little research after I heard about the event. It turns out that Stanchfield has had an extremely profound effect on the Disney animation that most of us know.

    The panel was mediated by Don Hahn who put together the two volume book titled Drawn to Life, 20 Golden Years of Disney Master Classes. ...
