Bret Parker, co-founder of Artfarm Productions, is a veteran in the film industry with 26 years under her belt at Pixar Animation Studios. Parker started her career at Pixar in 1996 and has gone on to animate on many films since, including the Oscar-winning “Finding Nemo” and “The Incredibles.” In 2012 with the development of the film “Brave,” Parker shifted her focus at work, becoming Animation Tools Lead and an integral part in the design and development of the current animation software used at Pixar, know as Presto. In 2018, Parker shifted focus again and took on the role of Animation Second Unit Supervisor for “The Incredibles 2.” She is currently working on Pixar’s 2022 release of “Turning Red.” Outside the studio, she created and directed work for the ground breaking dance troupe Iluminate, as well as wrote and directed a short animated film about climate change in partnership with the Marine Mammal Center and California College of the Arts. In 2019, along with her wife, Parker directed and produced her first feature length documentary, “Through The Windows,” which premiered at the Frameline Film Festival in San Francisco to a sold out audience. She is continuing to bring her unique perspective as queer female director to the screen with her latest film, “Pete.”
