Daniel Lafrance’s Summary
Hello, I've been working in animation for 23 years now, first as a traditional 2D animator, and later as a full time storyboard artist. I love this job!!
I also very much enjoy drawing stories in comic (sequential) form. All my stories have been published. I have done some educational comics too and would like to have the chance to do more of those.
I also self published an original children's book and have plans to publish five more books of that series.
Please visit my different websites to view my work.
Thank you.
