“I had the pleasure of working with Daniel on many projects while at Rhinofx. Although his title was "Senior Flame Artist" his abilities and creativity transcended that role. In my eyes and many other colleagues', he was someone you could approach to write a treatment, pitch a new job, construct a VFX methodology, or flat out lead a team of artists in achieving the creative objective while also managing the client. He is a talent on the box, as well as a talent off the box.”
