Daniel Whitaker
United StatesUltimately, I want to work in the commercial industry as a designer who animates. I see myself designing and telling stories through motion.
I started my college career studying architecture but felt that something was missing. I would always attend huge electronic music festivals like Ultra, EDC, etc. and gaze up at the screens in awe. Eventually, I put two and two together and decided that I wanted to explore the field of animating and designing for a digital canvas. This moment occurred about two years ago, since then I have been focusing 100% of my time developing my skills and refining my craft.

• Experience
During my time at NEXT/NOW I got to work on motion tests, style frames, and projection based experiences for the community.
I directed the event; I oversaw all the teams and made sure that there was a cohesive design direction.
