Between them, they have won the most prestigious awards in animation and have worked on some of the greatest classics in cartoon history. From the 1950s to the 1990s, from The Atom Ant Show to Lady and the Tramp to Who Framed Roger Rabbit? and What’s Opera Doc, they have had their hand in it all. These luminaries have over 150 credits to their name, and 150 years of experience and stories from the history of animation, a history over which they had a major influence and impact. Disney legend and Winsor McCay Award winner Floyd Norman (story artist, The Jungle Book, Monsters Inc.) joins SDCC Special Guest and owner of Baer Animation Company Jane Baer (key clean-up artist, Sleeping Beauty; coordinating animator, Who Framed Roger Rabbit?) , as they share memories from their storied careers. Animation historian, award-winning author, and Ink Pot winner Jerry Beck (author, The 50 Greatest Cartoons, professor of animation history, Cal Arts) will also be on-hand to offer cultural context and fascinating trivia you’ll love about the many animated features and shorts that benefitted from Jane and Floyd’s contributions.
