Back in 2003 I got the chance to work on the 'Aladdin' IMAX project for Walt Disney Feature Animation. Disney planned to re-release the original movie in the IMAX theaters. Complications arose because of the screen size ration and so the project was created. I was the lucky few who had been selected to work on the project. I had to redraw Princess Jasmine to a bigger size to match the IMAX's screen ratio. Well, after the project was done- it never got released in IMAX. I was pretty bummed. Months down the line and after I had just finished working on Disney's 'Home on the Range' movie- I was selected again to work on another project- 'The Lion King' Special Edition project and this gave me my 5th film credit for Disney.
Here's wishing you all a magical Memorial Day Weekend!
