DreamWorks Animators

We're on Twitter! This account will share AMAZING work & behind the scenes info of #DreamWorks animators. We also hope to spotlight animators who don't have large followings. First, we have some 2D work from Prince of Egypt animated by the legendary Kristof Serrand! #animation

One more of Fink from #TheWildRobotMovie I made expression sheets like this to inform both animation and rigging of things to aim for.

A silly little test I animated during the pre-prod/ rig testing phase of #TheWildRobot . Fink was one of my favorite characters to animate on the show! #TheWildRobotMovie

"Aggression detected." Here's a more complex animation I created for #TheWildRobotMovie , illustrating Roz's struggle to coexist with the forest animals. @chrissandersart 's pitch for this sequence was full of fantastic ideas! Enjoy! #Dreamworks

Here’s a little body attitude study I made of Fink in early development of #TheWildRobotMovie before beginning animation.

Sharing few shots i animated for The Wild Robot. 😊 Animation pass and Final look for comparison.

Here's my animation again, but in a side by side format. Should give you a better idea of what we animators are seeing everyday! It's not until we hand off our shots that lighters, cfx, and other departments add their amazing magic. #TheWildRobot #Animation

Some very early development of Fink from #TheWildRobot. Before the brilliant Dan Wagner joined us to Supervise Fink, I wanted to illustrate the appeal of minimalism, encouraging the animation team to do less and to always return to nature as our key inspiration.

A shot I animated on The Wild Robot, showing the film’s final product, my animation and in tje next loop also my staging pass to show my process with simple blocks to figure out staging/action/camera 🙂 #animation #3danimation #thewildrobot #TheWildRobotMovie #dreamworks

Do unto otters! An expression sheet of mine made for production of #TheWildRobot

At the time I animated this idea, we felt it was a little too fancy for the style of the show! But I'm happy the run came of use in the battle sequence! and no.. RECO's don't fly! #TheWildRobot #TheWildRobotMovie

Do you remember the poster from The Wild Robot? Maybe this scene will ring a bell. ;) #DreamWorks #animation #TheWildRobotMovie

Here's some of the shots and reference I did on #TheWildRobot. Loved working on it! All of the @DW_Animators did a fantastic job on this gorgeous film!

Beep boop, processing. An expression sheet I did of Baby Brightbill for #TheWildRobot

DreamWorks' "The Wild Robot" takes inspiration from Disney classics and Hayao Miyazaki’s work, resulting in an original virtual style that's being described as “a Monet painting in a Miyazaki forest. variety.com/2024/film/news…

Dr. Edwin Armstrong in baby form, from "The Boss Baby: Family Business". Heavily inspired by Ward Kimball´s work and design sense. Tonnes of talented people involved to create this guy at Dreamworks @DW_Animators @Dreamworks #jeffgoldblum #TheBossbaby #TheBossBaby2 #wardkimball

As an extremely passionate animator who loves what I do everyday, it is with a heavy heart that I have to announce I have been laid off from Dreamworks & will be available for work. I appreciate any job opportunities or leads. Thanks for your support. vimeo.com/922476238
