After graduating in 2003, Kondo and five of his fellow classmates took job offers at Nintendo - located in the same building as DigiPen’s former Redmond campus - and began working as “generalists,” utilizing their wide range of skills in modeling, texturing, rigging, animating, and concept art. Combined with his love of “magic, illusion, cartoons, and drawing,” he decided to jump into DigiPen’s digital art and animation program - at the time offered as a two-year associate degree.
Kondo first fell in love with film after seeing 1993’s Jurassic Park, which along with Terminator 2: Judgement Day, was one of the earliest Hollywood movies to utilize computer generated imagery. “In a way I feel like I sort of hit the lottery in that the first film I’m ever going to have worked on is going to be something so awesome.” “I would’ve worked on anything! As long as it was going to end up in a theater, I didn’t care,” Kondo says. After a 15-year career in the game industry, it will be the first animated feature film he has worked on, thus fulfilling one of Kondo’s lifelong professional goals. That Into the Spider-Verse’s stylistic gambit is generating universal praise from critics and fans alike is only icing on the cake for Kondo, who was celebrating the film last year for a very different reason. By mixing the visual language of traditional comic book art with 3D graphics, Sony Pictures Animation has created a dynamic hybridized style. Indeed, much of the excitement over the film’s look is because it marks a dramatic departure from dominant computer-animated film styles.
