For the second consecutive week, Disney/Pixar’s “Up” is the No. 1 movie in America. Cinema alumnus Jonas Rivera is the critically acclaimed film’s producer, the latest SF State alum to achieve success in animation.
Rivera has worked at Pixar since earning his bachelor’s degree from SF State in 1996.
“The best part of my job is that it’s a different job almost every single day,” he said in a May 23 San Francisco Examiner article. “You see the film go from page to storyboard to the computer model to animation; it’s like I see life breathed into it.”
