One Small Step tells the story of Luna, a Chinese American girl who dreams of becoming an astronaut. In part two of our interview with the masterminds behind TAIKO Studios we spoke with CG Supervisor and Rigger Joy Johnson and Head of Pipeline and Technical Animator Andrew Jennings! Join them as they discuss their days in college, working at Disney Animation Studios and making the jump to TAIKO. They share the importance of working collaboratively with coworkers at home and abroad, the power of visual communication and what it was like sharing the film with a live audience. It’s a fantastic story you won’t want to miss! TAIKO Studios’ Websites Watch the short on Vimeo!
