Working with Chun on the Disney account was awesome. I am always amazed with his storyboards which showcase what he needs clearly. Plus he is an extremely talented illustrator. He is always open-minded to ideas or different methods to approach problems. Definitely a problem solver. Would 10000% work with him on a project again.
