Randy Haycock - my 466th pick to be named a Disney Legend

Animator Randy Haycock is my 466th pick to be named a Disney Legend.

Haycock is one of the best animators at the Disney Studios today and has worked there since assisting Glen Keane on Aladdin after he came to the studio in 1991. He is from Colorado and went to BYU in Utah. Haycock is great at animating the human figure and some of his humans are among the liveliest the studio has ever done. He first started supervising on Hercules where he animated the younger scenes of the title character. This would be followed by Clayton in Tarzan, Princess Kida in Atlantis, many characters in Meet the Robinsons, Prince Naveen in the Princess and the Frog, and most recently Eeyore in the upcoming Winnie the Pooh movie. Haycock is a master of animating sincere characters and animation acting Disney style. He is currently still animating at the Disney Studio.
