Virtual Partners Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 http://www.sanfordkennedy.com/ Sanford Kennedy is not among us anymore By: Rilondra Appling Santa Monica, June 2005 - Today Vi Ly, Assistant Dean of Academic Affairs for Art Institute of California - Los Angeles announced that: " We received some sad news yesterday morning regarding Sanford Kennedy's passing. Sanford was on the animation faculty at The Art Institute from 1999-2003. Sanford was a character amongst characters. Originally trained as an engineer and industrial designer, he worked in the aerospace industry for years, before moving into visual effects. His film credits were as long as his shock of a white pony-tail, and included, the original Star Wars, Terminator, T-2, Tron, and True Lies. He published six books on software and over 100 articles on a multitude of topics related to the industry. For those of us who had the pleasure of working with Sanford,we know that he was always up for an afternoon long conversation on the merits of nurbs versus polygons, conspiracy theories on nuclear proliferation and the eternal debate "who was better, Hendricks or vintage Clapton". Sanford died of a heart attack this past Wednesday.His memorial service will be on June 11th at 2pm at 4121 Redwood Ave. in Marina Del Rey.
