ADAM LEVY

Hey There!

     I'm Adam Levy. Im a University of California, Santa Barbara graduate with a double major in Film and Media Studies and Communication. Ive also completed a certificates from UCLA's Professional Program in Screenwriting and the Professional Program in TV Writing.

     I've been in the film industry since 2009. I started out my career as a Production Assistant at DreamWorks Animation on "How to Train Your Dragon." From there I worked my way up to production coordinator on a few more DreamWorks films (Puss in Boots, MegaMind, Turbo).  During my time at DreamWorks, I taught myself Maya, in order to learn how to animate and run cloth and hair simulations. 

     After gaining enough experience at DreamWorks, I took my skills up to Canada to work on "Jack the Giant Slayer" as a Character FX artist.  After my short stint in Canada, I moved back to Los Angeles to work for Walt Disney Animation, where I have been since 2012. 

     Since being at Disney, I have worked on countless films including 4 academy award winners (Zootopia, Frozen, Big Hero 6 and Feast). Not only have I done artist work at Disney, but have also lead teams, mentored and taught new artists, gave outreach talks along the West Coast and Canada, and developed unique ideas and short films.

     Besides the work I have done at Disney, I have also developed, executive produced and directed animation for a series, written a pilot episode and developed a series currently under contract as well as directed my own short film.
