PEOPLE


SIMON HANSEN



Hansen has been working in the Film and entertainment industry since 1992.  One
of his early achievements was to produce "Alive in Joburg", the film on which
District 9 is based.

Hansen discovered and mentored long-time collaborators and friends Sharlto
Copley and Neill Blomkamp and has continued to mentor many animators and film
makers in the South African and Pan African Film Industry.  He partnered with
Copley in his first VFX business   for well over a decade, Atomic VFX.  They
wrote, filmed and produced content for ETV with a show called "Deadtime" which
ran seven days a week on the nation-wide broadcaster.

In 2005 Simon and Sharlto produced a short film directed by Neill Blomkamp
entitled Alive in Joburg,  which would go on to become the legendary "District
9",  a watershed film for  the South African industry, which put it 'on the map'
in terms of international producers seeking original,  ground breaking stories
from our shores.  Along with producing the short film which went on to be the
Peter Jackson produced "District 9", Hansen also directed one of the units in
District 9 itself.

One of the most visionary, talented and proficient film makers around, as a
writer,  producer and director, he has helped to build a film industry in South
Africa that can compete in the international arena. Known for his highly
collaborative nature, resourcefulness and boundary challenging methodologies he
takes innovative creative approaches to create world class production value in
budget-volatile environments.  Whether it's directing, VFX Supervision, or post
VFX production, this award winning artist, has gained a stellar reputation, and
plaudits from collaborators such as top Hollywood directors Philip Noyce, Gavin
Hood and Josh Trank.

His holistic approach to all aspects of the industry have earned Hansen the
reputation of being a collaborative visionary with ground breaking technical
nous, pioneering new innovations and creative techniques, in an ever changing
landscape. This pioneering spirit spills over into his search for unique
narratives, creating a singular voice that combines the artistic harmony of both
style and substance.
