New Zealand native Andrew Adamson started his career as a computer animator and joined Pacific Data Images (PDI) in 1991. PDI would merge with Dreamworks SKG and the SHREK series would set his career on a new path.

After being won over by Lloyd Jones' novel 'Mister Pip', he began chasing the film rights, quickly joining forces with producer Robin Scholes. MR.
