So if there is anyone well versed enough to talk about technological advancements in the world of Disney Animation, it’s definitely Marlon West. From there, he has contributed to a slew of features from the studio, and with The Lion King being the 32nd entry in the film catalog, and we are on approach to the 62nd with Wish, West has been present for half of the full-length features from the studio. While he joked yet lamented the fact that nobody really saw Rover Dangerfield or Bebe’s Kids, he can rest assured – people saw The Lion King. West, who came to Disney after working on Rover Dangerfield and Bebe’s Kids, got his spot in the trainee program, studying effects animation from classics like Pinocchio before being tasked with animating shadows in The Lion King. As part of Walt Disney Animation Studios’ appearance at SIGGRAPH 2023 in Los Angeles, award winning veteran effects animator and visual effects supervisor Marlon West came over the hill from Burbank to share 100 years of art and technology at the animation studio.
