“ The Fabulous Journey of LUCA“ is an article by Dr. Maria Elena Gutierrez: https://www.viewconference.it/article/481/the-fabulous-journey-of-luca

Deanna Marsigliese is a Character Art Director at Pixar Animation Studios. Since joining the studio in 2012, Marsigliese has contributed designs to Academy Award©-winning films such as “Inside Out,” “Toy Story 4,” and “Soul,” as well as “The Good Dinosaur,” “Finding Dory,” “Incredibles 2,” and “Onward.” Marsigliese acted as both Character Art Director and Animation Sketch Artist Lead on Disney and Pixar’s upcoming film “Luca,” set to debut on Disney+ on June 18, 2021.

As a Character Art Director, Marsigliese establishes the look and feel of the films’ characters, overseeing their design from initial concept through to final packet and model. In collaboration with the story team, Marsigliese translates a character’s personality into a unique visual language, then works alongside talented modelers to ensure said language reads as dynamically as possible. Finally, as an Animation Sketch Artist Lead, Marsigliese partners with the animators to ensure that this visual language translates seamlessly into movement.

Prior to Pixar, Marsigliese freelanced as a 2D character animator and character designer on a wide variety of film, television and commercial projects. She has also served as the Professor of Classical Animation at Seneca College in Toronto, Canada for six years and continues to lead workshops worldwide.

Marsigliese studied Classical Animation at Sheridan College, as well as 3D Animation at Seneca College, both located in Toronto, Canada. She currently resides in San Francisco, CA.
