Rebecca Perez works at Dream Works another company who make animated movies I love. Because I like these movies I decided to do some research on animator who works there.
Rebecca first became inspired to do animation at the age of 15 when she saw a commercial about a animated Listerine bottle done by CGI, later she discovered the animation was created by Pixar. When Rebecca was old enough she enrolled at the Ringling School of Art and Design where she received a BFA in animation but later on decided that she still didn't have the skill she needed to work on films so she hired a animation mentor. Rebecca's first job after education was at LucasArts where she had the job of 3D Technical Artist, putting completed animations into the game engine of the game the company was producing. Even though she wasn't working with animation she still could learn from the environment and study each process that happened in the gaming industry.
Eventually after building herself up Rebecca received a chance to work at Dream Works where she worked on a number of movies:
Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs (2009)
How to Train your Dragon (2010)
Megamind (2010)
Kung Fu Panda 2 (2011)
Turbo (2013)
I have seen all these movies and they inspire me to be an animator. All the movies from Dream works follow at specific style and have very interesting stories.
