Appears to have no coverage outside of passing references to him, mostly when mentioning RenderMan's existence. Not notable. DemonDays64 (talk•contribs) 06:06, 14 August 2023 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 06:06, 21 August 2023 (UTC)

 * Keep. He has a lot of patents, not sure what to do with that. He has been nominated for multiple Visual Effects Society awards including but not limited to winning an award in 2013  for Outstanding Visual Effects in a Special Venue Project and a nomination 2018  and I think there are more. More importantly(?), he has been awarded an Academy Award (in 1993, for science and engineering). [Here https://www.cgw.com/Publications/CGW/2009/Volume-32-Issue-2-Feb-2009-/Everything-You-Ever-Saw.aspx] is one source that mentions the Academy Award. There are a number of book references as well. I see a lot of sources that call him Tony or AA instead of Anthony. Anyway, there's a lot more there and I think an Academy Award is hard to overlook. I'm not familiar with the SNGs for movie productions and graphics software development, but I think this should be sufficient.Jacona (talk) 19:29, 22 August 2023 (UTC)
 * He's not insignificant as an author, see gScholar. . — Jacona (talk) 20:02, 22 August 2023 (UTC)
