Emmanuel Marenco

I started my career working as a freelance artist for an advertising marketing company in Los Angeles. Between odd jobs and creative pursuits I graduated from the Art Institute of California – Orange County in the Spring of 2007 majoring in Animation and Multi Media. I soon thereafter found myself at Super Villain Studios creating innovations as an Environment and Character Artist. Several years later I switched gears into animation and worked at Nickelodeon for 4 years, before starting my role at Dreamworks Animation as an Environment Modeler. With hard work I quickly moved up the ranks to become a Lead Character Modeler. But all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy…so when not creating masterpieces on par with repainting the Sistine Chapel, I enjoys long walks on the beach, ice cream in the Summer, finger paintings…and training to be a professional bodybuilder for the next Mr. Olympia title!
