You know, [during] the very last year or so of ‘Mad God,’ or even before that, the last couple of years, I ended up hating it. It was just a slog, just go in every day, and then get it done. And at the end, maybe about a year before it was complete, I had a huge mental breakdown and had to go into a psych ward for a while, and recovery, and that took me about three months to get over — but it busted my brain.

The Women of Disney Animation Studios.

The first female animator at the Walt Disney Studio, Retta Scott. “Her story drawings and concept art designs do not deserve to be overshadowed by her admittedly masterful animation.” – Didier Ghez. They Drew As they Pleased.

The second woman to become a story artist for Walt Disney, Sylvia Holland. “Sylvia was a jack-of-all-trades who could tackle any assignment with ease. During her time at Disney, she handled story direction, story research, script writing, art direction, scene timing, and more.” – Didier Ghez. They Drew As they Pleased.

◉ The first female story artist for Walt Disney, Bianca Majolie. “Majolie’s artistic approach did not generate a creative revolution at Disney, but she introduced a subtlety in her motifs, and inventiveness in the use of textures and colors, that contrasted strongly with the mostly cartoony and masculine styles.” – Didier Ghez. They Drew as They Pleased.
