A Proud Family Wizmas (2025-2026), Disney

Associate Producer

A Proud Family Wizmas is a stop-motion animated Christmas special for the television series The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder, premiering on Disney+ November 14th, 2026. I had the privilege of being the Associate Producer on the this film in collaboration with the Disney Proud Family team. I worked closely with show creators Bruce Smith and Ralph Farquhar to support their vision for this special.

As Associate Producer, I was primarily responsible for managing specific departmental schedules at HouseSpecial and supporting production leadership. During pre-production, I coordinated and ran daily meetings between our onsite co-director, the art department, and the puppet department. Part of my day-to-day involved handling all email correspondence and scheduling between HouseSpecial and our Disney partners. I created nightly decks which my senior producer presented to our Disney collaborators every morning. I also took on a leadership role within the puppet face kit team, creating a production schedule and projecting the team’s budgetary needs in preparation for shooting.

Nearing halfway through production, my role shifted to focus more closely on managing the VFX department and post schedule. I led a team of VFX compositors through to final delivery of the film sans any coordinator or wrangler support. I interfaced with the puppet, art, stage, and camera departments to help streamline the quality of the shots my artists received. I developed the VFX and post pipeline for my artist team via Production Flow Tracking (formerly Shotgrid), and was responsible for last looks for 600+ shots, working closely alongside my VFX editor. Leading the team through to color grade delivery, I remained onsite to manage pick up shots in preparation for heading onto final mix.

I am so proud of what we created and am beyond excited for the world to receive this beautiful and hilarious special this holiday season!
