Chang has been named a winner for his outstanding achievement in his vivid character expressions in "Firebreather", a computer-generated imagery (CGI) 3D animated film directed by Peter Chung.

Director Kim Sang-jin was awarded the same prize for a 2D movie in 2007, but Chang is the first South Korean director to win a prize for a 3D film.
