Writer/Director Dan Marsh blends the whimsy of childhood imagination with the emotional insight of a seasoned storyteller. Distinctive for its clarity and depth, his work balances playful experimentation and polished craft, with an almost mischievous delight in subverting expectations to engage both eye and intellect.
To label Dan a minimalist might seem at odds with the visual feast presented in his films, but his works are pared down to their essence without sacrificing entertainment. His style-agnostic approach seamlessly merges live-action, animation, and visual effects, creating singular narratives where the concept dictates the form — a fusion which brings kinetic energy to his live-action work and cinematic depth to animation.
Prior to joining Hornet, Dan honed his design-led aesthetics at ManvsMachine and Buck, collaborating with leading brands like Apple, Lexus, and Microsoft.
