I chat with Doug Engalla, a Researcher at the Walt Disney Animation Research Library (ARL) about his work preserving the art of Disney Animation. We talk about how Disney has accumulated approximately 65 million artworks in the 100 years of the Walt Disney Company and how Walt himself started the archive to create a repository to learn from past works and be able to reference older works at any time. We also talk about the impact Disney has had on the world of animation, including the influence it has had within and outside of its doors. In my "Back in Time" segment, I go back 34 years to when Doug first started with the ARL and how he took an unorthodox path to get there, but ultimately found his dream job. Plus, Doug recalls his first time at Disneyland and how a particular ride scared him so much, he didn't ride it again for many years. And as in every episode, we get advice, this time for those who want to work at a research library, especially one involving art. The Animation Research Library will be involved with D23 this year as part of the Ultimate Disney Fan Event, so go to d23.com to get tickets and more info.
