Alan Chan
Alan Chan's most recent visual effects assignment was as a Senior Technical Director and Stereoscopic Lead at Sony Pictures Imageworks, where he has served on projects such as “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone“ and Peter Jackson's "Lord Of The Rings: The Two Towers". Prior to Imageworks, Alan was co-founder of Station X Studios, where he has supervised projects such as Tom Clancy's 'Netforce' as well as commercial work for Chevy Blazer, Budweiser and Dodge Ram, and before that, Alan was at Digital Domain where he served as part of the Digital Ship Team on James Cameron's “Titanic”. Before entering the industry as a visual effects artist, Alan served as Producer/Director for regional television in Oklahoma. Three published books on 3D animation and experience writing for a national newspaper in high school round out his talents.

His fifteen-year visual effects career spans multiple Clio advertising awards for outstanding visual effects in the commercial field as well as three Academy Awards, two for Best Visual Effects - “Two Towers” and “Titanic” - and another for Best Animated Short (“The Chubb Chubbs”). His science fiction screenplay “Ark” has garnered praise and awards from industry professionals.

Working with the best teams in the industry has allowed Alan to finetune his skills and apply a critical visual component to the stories that he tells. In fact, Alan’s projects typically encompass a strong visual motif, which he uses to focus and shape the storyline, giving his work an epic, timeless feel.

His most recent directorial project is “Postcards From The Future" - a large format return-to-space epic that was named Best HD Short and garnered a Best Director award for Alan. His work can be seen in the Academy Award nominated Tim Burton film "Alice in Wonderland", and he is currently working on the Warner Brothers 2011 tentpole summer film "Green Lantern", due in theaters June 17th..
