BIO
Seb Danta is an award-winning animator whose films have screened at over 50 major film festivals across five continents. Seb has worked for some of Australia’s leading animation studios and production companies, with clients including the Disney Channel, Beyond, the ABC, SBS, Foxtel, Hackett Films and the Sydney Film Festival. He has taught animation at two of Sydney’s leading universities – UTS and UNSW – plus the National Art School, and recently completed a Masters of Animation and VFX at AFTRS. Seb is available for animation work in many capacities: director, writer, art director, motion graphics designer, illustrator, storyboard artist and, of course, animator.
Sebastian did an awesome job on a small animation asset we needed for a campaign. He was quick and diligent with his designs, and a great guy to work with. He offered us all the permutations that the client might possibly want, and addressed feedback in a positive and creative way. Highly recommended!

Called upon with little notice, Sebastian produced work of exceedingly high quality in no time at all. Aside from being an excellent animator and editor, Sebastian is an excellent communicator, making the feedback process a dream. I look forward to the next opportunity to work with him.

Fabulous talent, completely nailed the brief, and a no-fuss operator. Handled edits and feedback without any issues and was a real team player. Will have Seb back again in a heartbeat!

Seb is a great character to have in the studio and we have really enjoyed working with him on many projects over the past 10 years. Being a great communicator combined with terrific animation and creative skills means that Seb works well in a team or equally he is able to take charge of his own projects and work independently.
As a good listener, Seb has the valuable ability to interpret a client’s brief and transform this creatively with an outcome that is always on message and delivers above and beyond the client’s expectations. And he’s a top guy to have around too!
