Tony Mecca
AnimSchool Instructor
I've been a professional animator for over 20 years spanning major feature films, games, mixed reality, and most recently - theme park attraction ride and creative development.
I have animated on everything from VFX heavy realistic style shows like Snow White and the Huntsman, RIPD, and X-Men Days of Future Past to fully animated cartoony blockbusters like Rio 2 and Hotel Transylvania 2. Before feature film I worked in video games animating everything from super realistic combat simulations to sci-fi fantasy adventures. I was a primary member of the team that developed the critically acclaimed and award winning Conduit first person animation system.
After spending a few years working at Magic Leap developing the next generation of story telling for mixed reality, I am currently "at home" working as a creative lead with the amazing Universal Studios Creative producing the next generation of rides, lands and attractions for Universal studios theme parks world wide.
I am also a muti-patent holder (some of which include character animation technology) and work with almost every single major animation and VFX studio directing next generation character performances for our theme parks around the world.
