I've been watching 'Failure Is Not An Option', about Mission
Control, on the History International channel. Among the stock footage
used, particularly for Mercury and Gemini coverage, were various bits
of NASA animation, showing approximations to what things like the
Gemini 7/6 rendezvous should look like.

Do we know who produced these animations? Was it a contract out
to the side of Disney that did all those educational films, was it to
some smaller company, was it in-house? Who was the director? Who was
doing the detailed work?

Just like in them good old NASA/Apollo days, it's strictly need-to-
know and otherwise highly nondisclosure rated. You don't need to
know, and if you ever found out they've have to kill you (perhaps via
sudden brain tumor).
