About this episode
It's an especially *animated* episode because Mark welcomes talented animator, illustrator, and author Peter Raymundo on the show! The two of them rewind to the '90s and early 2000s when Peter was an animator at Disney, working on classic hit films Mulan, Lilo & Stitch, The Lion King, Pocahontas, The Emperor's New Groove, and more! Learn how Peter was plucked out of college to work for Mickey, and he explains which roles did what work in the drawing room. Plus, Peter's recent graphic novel, Lucky Scramble, is a hit with kids, and he's about to release his ninth children's book, Moby Duck, out next month! You can often find him at conventions, just like Mark did earlier this year. https://www.raymundoarts.com/
