Donald Chan

Featured Film Animation - Acting

Hi, I’m Donald, a professional animator with 13 years of experience in the animation industry. I currently work at Walt Disney Animation Studios, and before that, I worked at Pixar and Sony Imageworks. Some of the films I’ve worked on include Elemental, Lightyear, Win or Lose, Inside Out 2, Elio, and Into the Spider-Verse. Over the years, I’ve learned from some incredible artists, and now I’m excited to share what I’ve learned with you. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to sharpen your skills, I’m here to help you grow as an animator.
In our time together, I’d love to focus on key principles like appeal, clarity, entertainment and crafting performances that truly connect with the audience.

Brendan Russert

Animation Fundamentals - Maya

Hi! I’m Brendan, a Senior Animator at Riot Games.

I’ve been working on VALORANT for the past four years. Before that, I did previs and layout for Marvel and Star Wars on shows such as WandaVision, The Mandalorian, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, and a bunch of others you can check out on my IMDb. I also worked for Disney Interactive and WayForward on several different games and IPs, giving me over 10 years of experience in the animation field. I’ve done a bit of everything—from motion graphics to video editing and just about every other odd job you can think of in the field. I’ll meet you where you are at in your animation journey, and we can level up together—regardless of your experience or background
