An intimate instructional documentary series, Sketchbook takes us onto the desks and into the lives of talented artists and animators. Each episode focuses on a single artist teaching us how to draw a single iconic character from a Walt Disney Animation Studios film. As we learn the steps to drawing these characters, we also discover that the artists themselves each have a unique story to tell about how they made their way to Disney and their chosen character.

Quotes
[on animating a new Winnie-the-Pooh version: 2011] Rabbit thinks he's the smartest one in the room, except when Owl is there, thinking he's the smartest one on the room. Neither of them is of course. In any event, Rabbit always likes to be in control and when his plans don't work out he gets frustrated and goes a little crazy.
