Danielle Pedersen

As a passionate 3D animator and generalist with over 5 years of experience, I thrive in remote studio environments, creating captivating narratives that inspire imaginations across all age groups. My journey has been marked by a commitment to excellence and innovation, particularly in the realms of creature and children's entertainment.

At Fisher-Price, I illustrated storyboards for over 15 projects, significantly reducing revisions and enhancing productivity through a revamped storyboard process. My expertise in Autodesk Maya and Adobe After Effects has allowed me to animate dynamic characters and environments, while my attention to detail has been recognized through commendations for my animation clean-up work. I take pride in my ability to adapt to rapidly changing schedules and collaborate effectively with team members to deliver high-quality animations that resonate with audiences.

In my role as Lead Creature Animator at Aurora Belltower Studios, I developed comprehensive character guides and reference animations that have streamlined the animation process for my team. My dedication to research and development has not only improved the believability of our narratives but has also fostered a collaborative environment that encourages creativity and productivity. I am excited to continue pushing the boundaries of animation and storytelling in my future endeavors.
