Randy, as far as I know, always wanted to be an animator. I saw him when he was a child drawing cartoon characters. I don't know what influence his parents had in this; perhaps none, but I think his mom had a degree in engineering, and his dad founded Cartwright Engineering, in Fullerton, CA. I do think they encouraged his imagination.
In 1986 he returned to Disney as the Artistic Lead for the Disney CAPS development team. He combined his knowledge of animation with an understanding of computers to help design and build the first fully digital animation production system. He won a Scientific or Technical Academy Award for this work.
Randy Cartwright is the first one speaking here. He has worked for Disney for a very, very long time, with a break in between, when he was in Japan and then Taiwan.
I can just imagine the sounds the people in the theater audience must have made at the "Hi, Tim! This is Tim Burton" part, considering what he's turned into and that among the people this film covers he's pretty much the only one most people have even heard of! (Ask an average person who John Musker, Ron Clements, etc. are)
