Who would expect that behind the success of Pixar's latest film, Wall-E, is a Filipino? Chris Chua is one of the animators of Pixar. A 29-year old Filipino-American animator who has a Bachelor of Fine Arts in 2-D Animation from Cal Arts. He explained in an interview with The Inquirer that the look of "Wall-E" is monochromatic at times and has almost no dialogue in some scenes unlike other Pixar movies.Chua was born in Manila to a Chinese father and a half-Filipino mother. He moved to the US at age 10. His father is a banker and his mom was a secretary. Before joining Pixar, Chua worked as an animator at DreamWorks Animation as well. Some of his projects include: “Sinbad,” “Shark Tale” and “Flushed Away.”
