Helen Hyungin Choi — New York, USA

"The subtleties of character and great storytelling [in Porco Rosso by Hayao Miyazaki] amaze me most about it."

Helen Choi is a mutated-furry creature with eight legs and nonfunctional wings. She lives in a ruined building in Manhattan where grasses and furry flowers grow. She enjoys looking out at the vista where mutants roam freely. She goes hunting and farming everyday for a living. Her hobbies are skyscraper climbing and rope-swing jumping into river. In her past years, she kept her human form and dedicated her daily life to sitting in front of a computer, geeking out for a living. She generates 3D graphics for commercials and illustrates on her own time.
