Eka Hendrawan
Eka Hendrawan lahir di Yogyakarta pada 26 September 1974. Sejak dari sekolah dasar sudah sangat gemar menonton film, terutama film-film tokusatsu dan film-film bertema sci-fi yang trend pada masanya. Memiliki hobi menggambar dan membaca komik sejak balita dan kerap menggambar karakter-karakter dalam film-film yang ditontonnya atau karakter-karakter dari komik yang dibacanya. Hobby menggambar inilah yang membuatnya tertarik untuk Kuliah di jurusan Arsitektur Universitas Atma Jaya Yogyakarta. Hingga saat ini hobi menonton film dan corat coret sketsa masih tetap dilakukan di sela-sela kesibukan sebagai karyawan di salah satu mall di Surabaya.
Pada tahun 2015, diajak bergabung ke komunitas Montase oleh teman dekat di masa kuliah, yaitu Himawan Pratista, yang kebetulan memiliki hobi yang sama, menonton film. Tak lama setelah bergabung terlibat dalam beberapa produksi film pendek yang tengah dikerjakan. Diawali oleh film dokumenter, Paintings of War: Aggression in the Eyes of Children, sebagai ilustrator atau pembuat sketsa yang banyak disisipkan pada film tersebut. Kemudian juga turut juga membantu sebagai pembuat sketsa pada buku terbitan Montase Press, Memahami Film dan Memahami Film 2nd Edition. Proyek terkini Montase Production adalah pembuat sketsa dalam film dokumenter Sewu dan Kisah Seribu Candi (2020).

Since elementary school, he has been very fond of watching films, especially tokusatsu films and sci-fi themed films, which were trending at the time. He has had a hobby of drawing and reading comics since he was a toddler and often draws characters in the films he watches or characters from the comics he reads.

In 2015, he was invited to join the Montase community by a close friend in college, Himawan Pratista, who happens to have the same hobby, watching movies. Shortly after joining, he was involved in several short film productions being worked on. It was started by a documentary, Paintings of War: Aggression in the Eyes of Children, as an illustrator or sketcher often embedded in the film.
