Senior Animator at Walt Disney Animation Studios

Alissar Kobeissi is a Palestinian-Lebanese multimedia animator who started working in the film industry in 2014. They were lucky enough to start their career directly in feature films, landing their first job in Brussels at Nwave Digital, shortly before being approached by Sony Imageworks to work on Smallfoot. Alissar then worked on the pre-production and production of Sing 2 at Illumination Studios Paris, before returning to Sony for Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse and In Your Dreams. From there, they worked on Zootopia 2 at Walt Disney Animation Studios.
