Welcome to my somewhat spartan new web pages. My old website suffered a hacker attack and the server was taken offline. This new set of pages will have to do for the time being until I can whip up something more substantial. I'll include the basic info and links to placeholder pages, and then flesh things out with more images and text as time permits.

About me:

I am a computer graphics artist living and working in the San Francisco bay peninsula area. Currently, I am employed by PDI-DreamWorks, and  I am working on the Shrek movie franchise. I work as a layout animator, which basically means I do the initial set up of all shots/scenes in the production, install all the assets, sets, props and characters, and I do the camera animation. I have been doing computer graphics professionally since 1995, and I have worked in film, tv and videogames. My resume is available at the link below...

Dave's Resume

I have an interest in music production and recording, and I waste a lot of time on the electric guitar and bass. I'm a bit of a collector, and have quite a few guitars and amps. I have also taken up tube amp building, and have been studying/teaching myself electronics. Related links are below, some may just be placeholders for the time being.

I am involved with progressive political causes and projects, and actively support several news/information portals dedicated to getting alternative views out for the public to see. For the most part, the mainstream media is not your friend, and is just a tool of big business interests or the government.  Progressive news and activism links are below.

Politics and news

I can be reached in a variety of ways, but email seems pretty much the standard, especially for someone that spends 75% of his waking hours in front of a computer. Here are a couple of email addresses I've been known to reply to...
