John da Fonte

My career goal is to create animation performances focused on character acting that push beyond the capabilities of live action performance.

I first realized I wanted to work in the creative media and entertainment industry when I started out as an actor in my local school and community theaters. I realized from performing on the stage that I want to be a creator that entertains people. It was when I watched the movie "Tangled" that I really wanted to be involved in animation. I loved that movie's animation, mostly due to the quality of character acting and performance that each character was able to convey.
