Kidlet career guidance?

The kidlet has decided that their dream job is being on the team of people who take a book/fairy tale/whatever and make decisions about how to create the visuals of a movie -- the characters, the clothes, the architecture, etc.

Anybody have any knowledge of that field? I promised them I'd poll my community and see if we could find (1) anybody who had suggestions for them or (2) anybody actually working in the field whom they could fanperson.
