Jason Webb’s Summary

One year Human Resource Management (Business Administration) to enhance team leadership and project management skills. Graduated 'The Academy of Design' with the top average in my section with a solid base in many of the industry standard software packages. Enrolled at 'George Brown College' for Graphic Design to gain a better understanding of the principles and elements of design.

I have been actively engaged in new media for the past 6 years and have also graduated with honors at Seneca College for 2D Effects Compositing for Film and Broadcast. Worked for three years at Cuppa Coffee Animation, Video Compositing Department, on the hit Disney kids’ TV program, Jo-Jo's Circus. Wrapped up three productions (Superman Returns, Harry Potter & The Order of the Pheonix, and Beowulf) at IMAX as Lead Rotoscope & Keyer Supervisor for a team of 25.
