A Giant Leap In Animation...
At the 2020 SCAD Savannah Film Festival, animation legend and friend of SCAD, Glen Keane, received a much deserved Lifetime Achievement in Animation award. The Oscar-winner and veteran artist is responsible for some of the most iconic cells of animation ever put on screen, from his decades at Disney to his independent career. In his newest film, Over the Moon, Keane collaborated with a team of Chinese artists to bring a traditional legend to vibrant life, and the film fast hit number one on the Netflix charts. Animation is SCAD's most popular degree program, and the outpour of excitement from students, faculty, and staff further exemplified Keane's rockstar status as an animation hero. Paula Wallace reconnected with Keane to discuss his latest triumph, his ability to harness inspiration from the world, and how animation continues to capture our hearts.
