Sheridan Oakville talent makes Golden Globes stage by John Bkila Oakville Beaver Staff 29 | Thursday, January 15, 2015 | OAKVILLE BEAVER | www.insideHALTON.com Hollywood got a taste of Oakville's talent Sunday night with two Sheridan graduates snagging two big Golden Globe wins. Dean DeBlois, How to Train Your Dragon 2 director, accepted the award for best animated feature film, while Stephanie Gorin's casting work on Fargo was recognized when the show won best TV miniseries or movie. The 72nd Golden Globes, which aired Sunday night on television, sees the Hollywood Foreign Press Association hand out awards for movies and TV . The awards ceremony was held at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, Calif., and hosted for the third time by Amy Poehler and Tina Fey. DeBlois wrote, directed and was the executive producer of How to Train Your Dragon 2 for DreamWorks Animation. The 3D fantasy action film is the second in the trilogy that follows the adventures of a young Viking hero and his dragon, and features the voices of Gerard Butler, Jay Baruchel and Cate Blanchett. The Golden Globe marks the first time DreamWorks Animation has received the award in the best animated feature category since it was introduced in 2006. DeBlois graduated from the Oakville college's animation program in 1990, but his recent award win wasn't the first time his work has been recognized. He received a 2011 Academy Award nomination in the best animated feature film category for How to Train Your Dragon, which he co-wrote and co-directed with Chris Sanders for DreamWorks.
