Hi my name is Dan Goldstein and im a 2d/3d digital artist and animator. Thank you for viewing my demo reel here is some info about myself:
In May 2007, I graduated from the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth with a BFA in Electronic Imaging (computer animation) and a BFA in Illustration. My training at UMass allowed me to first develop strong skills in traditional art forms such as drawing, painting, sculpting, and illustrating. Since graduation, I have built upon and utilized these traditional skills by holding several positions that I feel give me the skills and experience necessary to succeed at your company.
In my most recent role at the documentary film company Docema LLC, my work had contributed to the film "Broadside: The Influence of Sea Power on History". Working alongside a talented team of animators and editors, I helped to create visually astounding 3D models, textures and animations. During my time at Docema, I had been able to hone and improve my animation and 3D modeling skills, while also contributing and adding value to the film and the company. In addition to my work as a 3D modeler and animator, Docema also provided me with the opportunity to take on the additional responsibilities of working with motion capture files, scene setup and render compositing. Prior to my tenure at Docema, I worked for the animation company One80 Visual. In my role at One80 Visual, I animated for the History Channel show “Tougher in Alaska,” and Disney’s “Race to Witch Mountain.” Before this, my first job in the industry was for Robert Stock’s independent film “Angels Blade 2: The Ascension.” Throughout my work experiences, I have gained a significant amount of experience with various software packages for design, 2D / 3D animation, 3D modeling, digital art, editing, and film production.
I believe that my creativity, passion, and determination are assets that will allow me to make valuable contributions to your company. In addition, I also feel that being friendly and personable are a very important aspects of being an artist, especially when wanting to work well with others. I always strive to give my best, and know that I would hit the ground running at your company.
