Character Animation Reel by Alexis Wanneroy

Alexis Wanneroy contacted me asking if I would post his showreel.
How could I refuse!

Alexis is a character animator at Dreamworks and has been lucky enough to work there for 5 years producing animation for How To Train Your Dragon, Kung Fu Panda, Bee Movie and Flushed Away.

He started working in the industry on Valiant after graduating from the Gobelins School in France, with his film Human Nature. I saw the short back in 2003 and remember really liking the style of both the quirky characters and the snappy animation.

Animating For District 9 by Robert Kuczera
Posted at 12:46 pm | Comments Off

Senior Animator Robert Kuczera has just sent me an e-mail asking if I would post a link to an interview with CG Heute entitled Robert Kuczera – Animieren Fur District 9 detailing the work he did on District 9 while at The Embassy in Vancouver. How could I refuse! The interview was originally written in German so the Google translation is a little ropey in places although it is easy to follow.

Robert’s extensive body of work, which can be seen on his website includes animation for adverts and films such as Comfort Creme and Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban while working at various effects studios including The Mill and Framestore CFC.  He is also known for his 9 minute short CGI film Dragon Slayer
