District9 Reel 2010 - Character Animator

I've got the big pleasure to be part of the FX team for this movie which I became a big fan. Was a great experience being an animator there. I started at the very beginning of the project back in 2008 which allows me to be part of the research for the type of alien-behavior(Christopher) and which kind of movements (walk, jumps, run ) when they're in action. Image-Engine was the company localized in Vancouver - Canada and was there where I met a lot of great people who some of them became my good friends but all crew without exception just let me more inspired to continue my path to go deeper and deeper in two of my passion which is the animation and rigging.
Thanks to everyone who made this project a great time to work.
