I had a great conversation with Marina Soto Echaniz, Animation Production Supervisor at DreamWorks Animation. We talked about her background that has nothing to do with animation or film—she has a Masters Degree in Sociology with an emphasis in Culture and Education. I think having that background may be one of the reasons she’s so good at what she does.
She says; “I consider myself a problem solver and a self-starter, taking the initiative and looking for a solution to the obstacles that occur on projects often on a daily basis.”
She’s a 20-year veteran in her field and has worked on many films, which include these titles The Croods, Kung Fu Panda 3, but has a special place for Me and My Shadow, which was never released. Her latest film project is The Boss Baby. Now you can listen in on the conversation. — A.O.
