Studio Life

"You can design and create, and build the most wonderful place in the world. But it takes people to make the dream a reality." - Walt Disney

Here at Walt Disney Animation Studios, employees continually enhance their development, learning, and creative growth through a wide variety of classes, from costume drawing instruction by our own artists, to seminars on film making techniques by masters of the craft, to technological demonstrations from in-house experts.

Maintaining a work-life balance is important and we’ve created an environment that reflects that philosophy. In short, our people make our films great, and we strive to build a culture that feeds and respects the creative spirit.
