An animator from Humboldt, Sask. can now cross ‘winning an Oscar’ off his list.
Andrew Ford helped animate Disney’s Zootopia which took home best animated film on Sunday night at the 89th Academy Awards.
Ford tells us more than 200 cast and crew members celebrated the win together at the Disney Studios both last Sunday night and this morning.
“We had a toast to the crew this morning,” said Ford. “The directors came by with the actual Oscar, so we got to hear their words and their stories from last night and we kind of reflected back on the movies we’ve made in the past year and a half.”
