These are some photos from our panels at San Diego Comic Con a couple of weeks ago! These were from the panel for the feature documentary ‘Floyd Norman: An Animated Life’ (about the life of Disney Legend Floyd Norman), as well as the Q&A after the film screening. These panels were so much fun, and it was such an honor to be on the same panel as these amazing film and animation professionals. It’s definitely an experience I will never forget!
San Diego Comic-Con: Floyd Norman Panel 2016
I'm super excited to be appearing on a panel at San Diego Comic-Con this year! I'll be on a panel about the feature documentary I've been working on, Floyd Norman: An Animated Life. Other panelists include Don Hahn (producer, The Lion King), Gary Trousdale (director, Beauty and the Beast), and of course Michael Fiore (director, Floyd Norman: An Animated Life). A huge huge thank you to Michael Fiore for inviting me to be on the panel with so many other amazingly inspiring professionals! The other panelists have been some of my biggest inspirations, and I'm so excited and nervous to be on the same panel as them! I hope I have something relevant to contribute...
The panel will be held on Friday July 22nd at 9pm in Room 9.
There will also be a screening of the documentary as part of the Comic-Con Film Festival, on Friday July 22nd at 3pm. The film follows the story of Disney animation legend Floyd Norman, and features interviews with Whoopi Goldberg, Don Hahn, and Richard Sherman, among others.
