Livington HS Grad Works On Kung Fu Panda 3: Report

The next time that you see an animated feature on the big screen, there’s a fair chance that a Livingston resident may be partly to thank.

TAP Into reported that DreamWorks Supervising Animator Sean Sexton - a Livingston High School graduate - has nearly completed his work on the highly anticipated animated feature Kung Fu Panda 3.

Sexton cut his animation chops at DreamWorks working on the cartoon series “Futurama,” TAP Into reported.

But Sexton isn’t the only Livingston resident with ties to the animation industry.

Twelve-year-old Dana Gaier served as the voice for Edith, one of the three orphan girls who are adopted by super-villian, Gru, in the blockbuster movie, Despicable Me.
