Accomplishments
Created the Animation Clean Up Calculator for Walt Disney Feature Animation
Created the Clean Up Calculator For Disney Feature Animation
Several productions, including mine, were in need of a way to calculate how much animation footage could be complete by each artist within a given span of time. I used a Microsoft Excel sheet to create formulas that could be input by artists or production management in order to hit the department's footage targets. This was then turned into an animation calculator app by I.T. and used production wide at Disney Feature Animation.
