Shit I did is in the new Spider-Man Movie

Seriously though, I'm excited.

I'm a character animator living in Vancouver, and my first feature film work ever is in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 which premiered today. I only have a single, 6 second shot, but it's my work and I'm very proud of it. It's truly something else to know millions of people are going to see your stuff.

For those of you interested, my shot is about 35 minutes into the movie when + Show Spoiler +
all of the electric eels explode out of the tank. I have the wide shot after the triple-cut of eels flying out, where you see them all fly out of the tank and hit the ground and try to swim around for a while (before we cut close on Jamie Foxx).

Nice! I'll be sure to pay attention to that part when I go see the movie. Once that part comes on, I'll be like "HEY, I know the guy who animated that part!" and everyone else in the theatre will be like "Shush!"

From now on, you will be known as The Eel-Animator.

Yeah, whenever anybody asks me what I did at MPC Vancouver I just say "Eels."

Actually, we're gonna combine the words to form Eelmator.

That is quite possibly one of the most iconic parts of the movie. Nice!

I was pleasantly surprised by the movie. I don't normally like action movies, but it was pretty good

This was quite early in my career, so overall it was a learning process and took much longer than it would have taken if I did it again today

The one that swims against the current back towards the tank is definitely the easiest one to see and draws the eye. It was also the first one that got approved

There's actually like ten eels or something, and my layout in total had like fifteen. By the time you put all the CG water and dark lighting and stuff in there though, you only really see a few of them (I only saw like 5 in theatre, and I knew exactly where they all were!) I know people who spent months on beautiful animation on Life of Pi, only to go see it in theatre and realize that it was completely hidden by a wave coming over the ship
