Just as production was getting into the swing of things last year, the Covid-19 pandemic forced the physical studio building to temporarily shut down, and the studio’s systems/infrastructure teams had to scramble and go to heroic lengths to get production back up and running again from around 400 different homes.Īs a result, Raya and the Last Dragon is the first Disney Animation film made entirely from our homes instead of from the famous “hat building”. The story took time to really get right, the technology side of things saw many challenges and changes, and the main production of the film ran headfirst into the Covid-19 pandemic.
Raya and the Last Dragon was an incredibly difficult film to make, in every possible aspect. I’ve been working on Raya and the Last Dragon in some form or another since early 2018, and Raya and the Last Dragon is the first original film I’ve worked on at Disney Animation that I was able to witness from the very earliest idea all the way through to release every other project I’ve worked on up until now was either based on a previous idea or began before I started at the studio. The first of these is Raya and the Last Dragon, which is simultaneously out in theaters and available on Disney+ Premiere Access on the day this post is being released. After a break in 2020, Walt Disney Animation Studios has two films lined up for release in 2021!
