Carter Goodrich ~ American illustrator

Описание: Carter Goodrich's career as an award winning freelance illustrator began in 1983, when he shared studio space with longtime friend and fellow illustrator, Buck Lewis. His book and editorial work eventually led to the publication of seventeen New Yorker covers. Carter's first role in film work came as lead character designer for DreamWorks' first feature animated film, "Prince of Egypt", in 1995. He then went on to work on such films as "Finding Nemo", "Monsters Inc.", "Shrek", "Spirit", "Sinbad", "Open Season", on which he worked as art director/character design, and "Despicable Me" as lead character designer. His work on these films resulted in four ASIFA Annie Award nominations for best character design in a feature animated film. In 2007 his designs for Pixar's "Ratatouille" finally brought home the Annie. In addition to his earlier illustrated books, "Nutcracker" (1987) and "A Christmas Carol" (1997), Carter has written and illustrated "A Creature Was Stirring", "The Hermit Crab", "Say Hello to Zorro" and "Zorro Gets an Outfit", the second of an ongoing series of stories that feature the two dogs, Zorro and Mister Bud.

Carter lives and works in Los Angeles, CA.
