He’ll be sharing stories from the show in a special preview of VIEW Conference.

I’m excited to announce the details for a special ‘PreVIEW’ session of VIEW Conference that I’ll be hosting with Industrial Light & Magic animation director Hal Hickel. We’re going to be discussing The Mandalorian!

Hickel is an Academy Award winner for Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest and a further three-time Oscar nominee.

For The Mandalorian, he oversaw the animation for all manner of creatures, vehicles and characters, as well as playing a key role in visualizing ILM’s miniature and motion-control shots featured in the show.
