Dreamworks Veteran, Young Song, Commits Abomidable Acts of Cruelty

April 29, 2011 · Filed Under Animation News · Comments Off on Dreamworks Veteran, Young Song, Commits Abomidable Acts of Cruelty 

This isn’t 2D animation news. It is news about an animation special effects artist at Dreamworks. It made me sick. I hope Young Song is blacklisted and never works again.  From The Daily Mail:

According to the Pasadena Humane Society, security camera video allegedly showed Song shooting the muzzled dog with a pellet gun before later returning and killing the animal with a hammer.

It is claimed he then carried away the dog, who is yet to be found and is presumed dead.

‘When our officers first viewed the videotape, one of our officers had tears in his eyes. He’d never seen anything like this before,’ Steve McNall, head of the Pasadena Humane Society and Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, told the Los Angeles Times.

‘In my 31 years at this animal shelter I’ve never seen anything like this.’
