Scott Snibbe

Scott Snibbe's work focuses on new forms of computer animation, visual communication and novel user-interfaces. He is currently working with Interval Research to infuse computer assisted filmmaking, toys and everyday tasks with human qualities, particularly through the use of gesture as a primary form of input. He has previously worked with Adobe Systems to create animation controls for After Effects and at the Brown University Computer Graphics Group with Andries van Dam on three-dimensional user-interfaces.

Snibbe is also a filmmaker working to express complex and emotionally rich stories with animation. His films focus on the intricate relationships within families and the subtle moments of growth that change people forever. His films include "brothers" and "Lost Momentum", both traditionally animated.

Snibbe holds a Bachelor's degree in Art and Computer Science from Brown University and a Master's degree in Computer Science from the same institution. He has studied and taught animation at the Rhode Island School of Design with noted experimental animator Amy Kravitz. His computer research and interactive art installations have been shown at SIGGRAPH, Eurographics and Ars Electronica, where he was a prizewinner in Interactive Art for his piece, the "Motion Phone". His films have been shown internationally in a wide range of film and animation festivals.
