Marco Salsiccia’s Summary

I'm a freelance compositor/motion graphics designer. I'm currently openly freelancing in the Bay Area, and am looking to get into compositing, motion graphics, and DVD authoring as I advance my career.

I have had extensive experience working in teams and handling deadlines, plus I hold a Bachelor of Science degree in Media Arts and Computer Animation. I absolutely eat, sleep and breathe animation, and I have a well-studied, generalized grasp of everything that happens within this field; from producing to direction, from lighting to rendering, modeling to animation, art and design to practicality and the advancement of a message.

I've chosen to focus in and specialize on compositing and motion graphics as they are two areas that I am very much interested in, and are things I comfortably find myself delving in until I notice that it's 4am in the morning.
