RGD Ontario has announced the lineup for their fall webinar program. Best of all, the webinars are free for RGD and GDC members. 

 We're just one more sleep away from the start of this year's celebration of Animation, SPARK Animation '10, from our friends at Siggraph Vancouver. Excitement has been brewing for weeks and we're looking forward to opening night, where we've lined up an evening of premieres and an in-depth chat with documentary filmmaker, Ted Thomas. 

Following Ted's presentation and screening, we'll be presenting the Vancouver premiere of Don Hahn's behind-the-scenes glimpse at the re-birth of Disney animation, "Waking Sleeping Beauty." Documenting the history of Walt Disney Feature Animation from the making of The Fox and the Hound in 1980, to the release of The Lion King in 1994, the film covers the rise and fall of Disney's animation division, the effects the new corporate team of Michael Eisner, Frank G. Wells, and Jeffrey Katzenberg ,and the newfound success the studio had with the releases of The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin and The Lion King between 1989 and 1994.

Opening night is not to be missed! Doors open at 6:00 with a mixer, so please join us as we kick off another SPARK Animation Conference and Festival.
