Interested in animation since 1975, worked in Holland with Danish animator Børge Ring for four years (incl. on the Oscar-winning 'Anna & Bella'), then moved to Denmark in 1984. In SoCal since 2019.
Co-founder in 1988 of A. Film, Europe's foremost animation studio, in business for over 30 years. We are the studio behind 'The Flight before Christmas', 'Help! I'm a Fish', 'Asterix and the Vikings', 'Checkered Ninja' and many more...
Currently the President and CEO of A. Film L.A., Inc. in Los Angeles,
and director of "Miffy the Movie."
Though we are very involved in new techniques, I share a deep passion for Great Classical Animation with everyone at the studio;
Frank Thomas and Ollie Johnston's "Illusion of Life" is our bible.

The Internet Movie Database credits for Fantasia has a lot of names with credits like "M. James" or "D. Stark", and these were obviously unidentified effects animators, I noticed a name on the IMDB credits like "V. Jones", and I knew it was Volus Jones.
I see that there are a lot of animators in this segment that are on the Toccata and Fudge credits that are on the screen credits (Meador, Aardal, Wood, Rowley) and only do one scene (I guess that all counts on the screen-footage).
Cy Young's animation early on is very impressive, and all the animation in there is very impressive: Oh and Cy Young actually originally did the storyboards for the film and was supposed to work with Oskar Fischinger.
Toccata and Fudge - sounds like an interesting dessert... ;-)
That was quite a spectacle, perhaps al ittle bit to abstract, but it has wonderful timing.
All in all, Cy Young and Sam Armstrong couldn't have been too far from eachother at most given times in the early 1940s.
Oopsy - Should've noticed my spelling error - but it does sound like a great dessert with some custard. Hehe.

Here are the names of the others who worked on this sequence: M. Rossi is Mildred Rossi (1915-1998)(later known as Millicent Patrick - and yes, she designed the Creature from the Black Lagoon.) Marcia James (1917-2003), Dwight Stark (1916-2009), Gifford Hiser (1915-1982.)
