The Animation Renaissance with Disney veteran Dominick Domingo

Join Language of the Soul host Dominick Domingo and his former student Janna Van Vliet from Amsterdam as they reminisce about the ‘Animation Renaissance.’ We break format in this special episode by giving Janna the opportunity to pick Dominick’s brain for the benefit of listeners—about everything from the lore surrounding this unique pop culture moment to nostalgic, first-hand anecdotes from the trenches of production on Lion King, Pocahontas, Hunchback of Notre Dame, Tarzan, Little Match Girl and One By One. We also discuss the nuances of Art Education, how the academic arena has evolved over time, and Dominick’s personal experience both founding the Entertainment Track at his alma mater, Art Center College of Design, and amassing twenty years of classroom experience therein.  www.dominickdomingo.com

Now more than ever, it’s tempting to throw our hands in the air and surrender to futility in the face of global strife. Storytellers know we must renew hope daily. We are being called upon to embrace our interconnectivity, transform paradigms, and trust the ripple effect will play its part. In the words of Lion King producer Don Hahn (Episode 8), “Telling stories is one of the most important professions out there right now.” We here at Language of the Soul Podcast could not agree more.

This podcast is a labor of love. You can help us spread the word about the power of story to transform. Your donation, however big or small, will help us build our platform and thereby get the word out. Together, we can change the world…one heart at a time!
