THE MANDALORIAN” Animation Director HAL HICKEL of Industrial Light & Magic in conversationwith Ian Failes, editor of the Befores and Afters.
VIEW CONFERENCE 2020 hosted a series of free online one hour presentations. In this PreVIEW session, Academy Award winning animation director Hal Hickel speaks about Disney+’s breakthough and immensely popular television series “The Mandalorian,” with VFX journalist Ian Failes. For this series, ILM developed new virtual production technology that made it possible for artists to create feature-film quality animation and visual effects under broadcast television constraints. The exciting new methods they developed will give filmmakers working on feature films as well as television series unprecedented opportunities.
Hal Hickel oversaw all the animation for the creatures, vehicles, and characters in ‘The Mandalorian’ and played a key role in visualizing ILM’s miniature/motion-control shots featured in the show. He has received an Academy Award for Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, is a three-time Oscar nominee, and was the animation director for Rango, which received an Oscar for Best Animated Feature.
The Mandalorian PreVIEW was organized by VIEW Conference in collaboration with OGR, BeforesandAfters, and Industrial Light & Magic.
