Director Biography - Antonio Cortes

I was born in Mexico and raised in Canada.

For as long as I can remember I have been inspired by movies and animation. Whenever I watched them I would try to express my thoughts and imagination through pencil and paper.

Since childhood I knew that my calling was to work in the film and animation industry and so I worked hard to develop my skills as an animator and a storyteller.

Throughout my high school years I made personal animated projects and decided to study at Vancouver Film School where I studied both the Foundations Visual Art + Design and the 3D Animation + Visual Effects programs.
