Yong Hong Zhong was born in Canton, China and immigrated to the United States when he was twelve years old. Yong developed a keen interest in drawing at an early age. His determination to pursue his dream of being an artist prompted him to attend La Guardia High School, a prestigious school for music and arts in New York City. Yong continued his education at Pratt Institute in New York to further develop his artistic skills. He majored in Illustration and has a minor in Art History. • During his third year at Pratt Institute, Disney Animation Studios selected him and fourteen other college students from all over the country to tour their facilities and study under their artists for two weeks. The animation industry reinforced his love for the arts. Upon graduation, he was offered an internship at the Disney Animation Studios in Florida. After completion of the internship, Yong went back to New York and worked for MTV Animation Studios as a storyboard artist. At MTV, he helped design backgrounds, props and also had an opportunity to be a voice-over. A year later, he rejoined the Walt Disney Company and has worked on featured films since 1995. • Yong: • http://yonghongzhong.com/ • / yonghong.zhong.9 • Directed by Mike Truong • / faintmike • Faint Media Plus is a creative agency focusing on storytelling through a different lens. • Produced by Faint Media: • www.faintmedia.co
