: Greg Siskind's BlogIMMIGRANT OF THE DAY: JAN PINKAVA - DIRECTOR/WRITER/ANIMATOR
By Greg Siskind
Czech-native Jan Pinkava is nominated for an Oscar this year along with two colleagues for Best Original Screenplay for their work on the wonderful Pixar/Disney film Ratatouille. I loved this movie and continue to be impressed by the wonderful movies coming out of this studio.
Pinkava emigrated to the UK at a young age and won a BBC young filmmaker's contest. He went on to study computer science in college and then combined his technical skills with his love of film to become a master of computer animation. Pixar recruited Pinkava in 1993 and he began work on Ratatouille in 2000.
