INTERVIEW<br />
KOREAN ARTISTS<br />
TO LEAD CG BLOCKBUSTERS<br />
Anyone who has been paying close attention to the end credits<br />
of Hollywood blockbusters for the past several years will have<br />
noticed the occasional Korean name scroll by. Today, there are<br />
actually quite a few Korean VFX artists working on some of<br />
Hollywood’s top productions and at some of America’s leading studios.<br />
These talented men and women represent the future of the<br />
Korean VFX industry.<br />
Koreans had a hand in Avatar (2009), James Cameron’s epic 3D<br />
motion picture that has fundamentally altered the movie industry.<br />
The list includes lighting technical director Jung Byung-gun(above),<br />
digital modelers Chang Jung-min and Lo Eung-ho, senior facial<br />
modeler Lee Jin-woo, modeler Lee Sun-jin, visual effects artist Im<br />
Chang-eui, FX ATD Sean Lee, motion editor Kim Ki-hyun and senior<br />
animator Park Jee-young. A total of nine Korean artists were<br />
involved in the historic cinematic project, two of whom sat down to<br />
talk with KOREA about their lives and the VFX industry.<br />
