Tom Firestone Plus
I began my career in practical-effects for film and eventually made the transition from model maker to production designer. While building miniatures and sets, I worked for some of the leaders in the industry such as Digital Domain and ILM.
Currently I use my background in film design to create motion graphics and animation. I also write, having a firm grasp of character and story principles after working directly for Walt Disney Feature Animation after selling the studio an original pitch.
I graduated from the School of Visual Arts with a BFA in Film and studied design, typography and color theory at the Art Institute of California; gaining proficiency with Photoshop, Illustrator and After Effects. I favor Cinema 4D for my 3D work.
I am a moving-image junky and lifelong student of art and technology.
Thank you for checking out my work!
