Doug Dooley

My new mentor for Term 2, "Body Mechanics" is Doug Dooley.



"Doug has been working as a character animator since 1995, after graduating with a computer animation degree from Ringling School of Art and Design. He spent 4 and a half years working as a character animator at Blue Sky Studios were he worked on several commercials and movie effects, as well as being a lead animator on the Oscar winning short animation “Bunny.” Currently he is a character animator at Pixar Animation Studios, were he worked on Monsters Inc, Finding Nemo, and The Incredibles. He is currently helping set up animation production on Pixar's 2006 movie."

I can't wait to meet the guy, I totally respect his work. Here's an interview with him from October 1999 talking about Bunny. I can't find much else on the net about him, but once I do I will post it here.

There's some mention of him on the Incredibles DVD animator commentary, not much, but his makeup QAs rocked :D.
