During production on Don Bluth’s An American Tail, the crew was split between two buildings in Southern California: the main studio and a second building across the street known as “the Warehouse”. In this video, producer Gary Goldman makes a quick visit to our room. One of my roommates, EFX animator Joey Mildenberger, calls him over so I can record a brief behind‑the‑scenes moment from the production floor.
