Disney creative head was fired for proposing animation
Disney's current Chief Creative Officer, John Lasseter was fired from the company in 1983, for suggesting to create fully computer-animated films. Soon after, he joined Lucasfilm, now known as Pixar, where he directed 'Toy Story', the world's first feature film created completely using computer animation. Disney later bought Pixar in 2006 and appointed him at his current position.
