When you watch the latest upcoming animation, "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse," you will be proud to know that the fight scene of Miles and the Spot at the beginning of the film was done no less by a Filipino.

We were able to talk by Zoom to Samson about his work on the movie which will be coming out in the Philippines on May 31. Below is our conversation with him.Congratulations on your involvement with the "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse" movie! Can you please tell us exactly what you do as a lighting and compositing artist?

I was definitely involved in some of those things, and they are challenging because some of the special effects that we did there have never been done before. So, a lot of the action scenes take a lot of time to make it look correct. Also, when you're doing an action scene sometimes it's hard to depict it and make sure that it will resonate with the audience, right? So, it has to be perfect and crisp in every aspect.

It's very common in the Philippines that we would have families in one compound. So, I picked it up although I didn't grow up in Bicol. But when I went to college, I got into more animation with my friends who also loved anime. I totally loved anime. So, one of the biggest ones that I could think of would be Hayao Miyazaki. He's the one who did "Spirited Away," "Princess Mononoke."

Recently, I worked on "The Sea Beast," which was actually nominated for the Oscars. Before Sony, I worked in "Star Wars Clone Wars." I did a bit of "Avengers" and "X-Men" and "Fast and the Furious," and "Rango."The Saturday morning cartoons that I was mentioning earlier are old traditional cartoons. I would love to see some of them re-imagined in computer graphics because we have more advanced computer technology now.
