He enrolled at the School of Visual Arts in Manhattan, successfully graduating with a master's degree in Fine Art. In 1989, Romanillos was hired by Disney, who were at the time actively recruiting animators. He began as an animation trainee, working on many Disney films, including The Little Mermaid, The Rescuers Down Under, and Beauty and the Beast.

He would work on The Road to El Dorado, Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron, and Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas.
