Walt Disney Animation Studios Interns Animate ‘Voilà’ Short

CG and Art Interns Alex Rivera, Felicia Chen, Casey Kelly, Hannah Kim, and Chrisy Baek produce a 30-second short that captures the imagination and sense of discovery that comes with our earliest artistic experiences.

Earlier this year, a group of five animation and computer graphics students at the eight-week Walt Disney Animation Studios CG & Art intern program were given the unique opportunity to create a short film under the mentorship of artistic leaders.

Unlike past years, in which each intern in the program focused on a single discipline such as animation or lighting, this year’s CG & Art interns were asked to have a hand in all levels of production, from story development to execution.

Led by supervisors Alessandro Jacomini (Director of Photography, Lighting) and Mark Empey (Character Technical Director), CG and Art Interns Alex Rivera, Felicia Chen, Casey Kelly, Hannah Kim, and Chrisy Baek produced a 30-second short, Voilà, that captures the imagination and sense of discovery that comes with our earliest artistic experiences. The music was composed by Music Intern Sahil Jindal:
