Very few people reach the pinnacle of their dreams only to walk away from it. Tom Bancroft reached the top of the animation world by becoming one of the top animators and character designers. He worked on projects including Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, The Lion King, Pocahontas, Mulan, and Brother Bear. But he is best know for creating the character Mushu for Milan and for animating Young Simba for The Lion King.

After thirteen years at Disney and working on approximately nine features, Tom left Disney to pursue another adventure working at Big Idea Productions as a Supervising Director/Co-creator. Most recently Tom has been Artist in Residence at Lipscomb University in Nashville Tennessee.

Tom's most recent adventure is launching a brand new animation studio, PENCILISH ANIMATION STUDIOS using crowd investing where everyday people can be an owner in the new studio.

In today's episode, we discuss how you can own an Animation Studio and be a part of Pencilish, his time at Disney and Big Idea, Disney's second golden age of animation, teaching animation, crowd investing, faith in media, and much more.
