Looking back at a long and successful career in the international animation scene, Eric Daniels will share with the audience the insights and skills he has gained through working on numerous major productions. A traditionally-trained animator, programmer and inventor, and now an EFX animator at Disney, Eric has a long history of finding new ways to bridge the worlds of art and technology, and is frequently called upon to help solve technically challenging artistic problems.
Eric will talk us through the processes that enabled him to solve some of the more interesting challenges he has faced at Disney Animation and how false starts and dead ends encountered along the way led to new solutions in art and technology.
The seminar is open to participants with an valid Industry or Student pass (Friday or for the entire festival).
