Stefan Nadelman from Bent Image Lab
Stefan worked as lead animator for Connected: An Autoblogography About Love, Death & Technology. As lead animator, Stefan was solely responsible the look and feel of all the original animations produced for the film. If a section or line of narration could not be filled with verité or stock footage, then Stefan would be needed to step in with animation. The prolonged production period for the film allowed Nadelman to handle all the animation work, as opposed to hiring help. Stefan worked remotely from home in Portland while the larger production was based in San Francisco.
About Stefan
Son of a wedding videographer and photographer, Stefan received a bachelor's degree in fine arts from Iowa State University in 1994 and began working in New York City as a print graphic designer. He transitioned to web design and then web animation not only for interactive design but for film.
In 2000, Stefan's first film, "Latin Alive" was included on the Best of Resfest DVD volume 1.
By 2003, Stefan left the world of web-based animation for that of film and television. Shortly after, his next film, "Terminal Bar", won the Jury Prize for short film at the Sundance Film Festival.
Among a variety of personal, collaborative, and commercial work, he has directed and animated shorts with Robert Smigel for Saturday Night Live's TV Funhouse, a music video for Menomena's Evil Bee, and the viral mini-epic short film about war called Food Fight.
Stefan continues to direct and animate for food, film, and fun.
