By Kim Masters • • 29m ListenAndrew Millstein and Roy Conli are Disney veterans who have been around since the days of hand-drawn features. They tell Kim Masters about the ways in which Disney animation has grown and evolved since adding Pixar and Marvel to the family. They also share why they never start a movie with a sequel already in mind, and how Disney went from being the "aging aunt" of animation, to basking in the glow of "The Frozen Effect."
