Melissa Fontanini

Melissa is an Ohio native with a BFA in Art & Technology from The Ohio State University and an MFA from the University of Southern California's School of Cinematic Arts Division of Animation and Digital Arts.  She has been living in Los Angeles since 2005 where she thrives on learning new things as often as she can; such as aerial circus arts, fire dancing, and ballet, to name a few.  This is much like her art-making where she experiments with new mediums and techniques to push and challenge herself.

Melissa works as a 3D Maya Generalist and instructor with experience in Augmented Reality asset creation, when she isn't busy with powertools, wood-cutting, paints, and resin.
