Congratulations to Brian Menz, who worked as an animator on Disney’s Frozen, which won best animated feature film at this year’s Oscars!<\/p>\n

Brian was a student at the Animation Workshop many years ago. \u00a0He then interned with Animatus and was a lead animator on our second Derf the Viking cartoon, “The Quest for Happy Hour.” \u00a0His animation of Derf was top notch, and we were happy to see him continue in the industry.<\/p>\n

His work can also be seen in films such as\u00a0“Wreck it Ralph,” “Ice Age: Continental Drift,” “Rio” and “Bolt.”<\/p>\n
