Carter Goodrich began his career as a freelance illustrator in 1983, working from a shared studio with fellow illustrator Buck Lewis in New York City. His book and editorial work eventually led to twenty-one published New Yorker covers, and counting, as well as an invitation to work as a character designer for DreamWork’s first animated film, “Prince of Egypt”, in 1995.
Shortly after completing work for that film, Carter moved to Los Angeles where he continued to contribute to various feature animated films as a freelance character designer.
Some of those films include, “Finding Nemo”, “Monsters Inc.”, “Shrek”, “Spirit”, “Sinbad”, “Open Season” as art director of character design, “Despicable Me” as lead character designer, “Hotel Transylvania”, “The Croods” as lead character designer, “Ratatouille” as lead character designer, and “Brave” as lead character designer.
His work on these films resulted in six ASIFA Annie Award nominations for best character design in a feature animated film, winning the Annie in 2007 for “Ratatouille”, and again in 2014 for “The Croods”. Of the films he’s worked on, four have gone on to win Academy Awards.
