If you have the opportunity to work with Erik, you should jump at the opportunity! Erik is a fantastic animator and has a strong understanding of the entire process of animation production: Pre-Production, Production, and Post. During his time with us at DreamWorks, Erik worked on two very demanding productions: Fast and Furious: Spy Racers and Kung Fu Panda: Dragon Knight. I can say without hesitation that the storytelling and animation quality on these two productions would not be what they are if it weren't for Erik. Whether it would be as an animator on your project or as a team leader, Erik would bring enthusiasm, professionalism, and a commitment to storytelling that would bring out the best in your project and those around him.
