My name is Jeff Kasunic. My passions are the creation of computer-generated imagery, stories, visual effects, and music composition. Actually, anything that has to do with the creation of movies.

I am employed by DreamWorks, and have worked on Shrek 2, Shark Tale, Over the Hedge, and Flushed Away as a lighter.

I spend pretty much all of my free-time studying music composition. Come back later this year to hear samples of the work I've been doing in this area.

If you would like to contact me for any reason, you can reach me at KasunicJ@DynamicPixels.com.
