Cogswell alumnus, Allen Stetson (class of 1999), Lead Technical Director at DreamWorks, will be featured in the Inspiration section of 3D World Magazine’s December issue.

In the article he describes how after viewing the film, "The Little Mermaid," in seventh grade he became fascinated by the way the artists handled light and the distortion of movement through water. He knew then, that this is the field in which he wanted to build his career.

Cogswell recognized Allen as its Silicon Valley Campus Alumnus of the Year at Founders’ Day in March 2008. The award is given to alumni who have made contributions to their professions and had an impact on Cogswell.
