About the Instructor:
Una Di Gallo is an award-winning animator, illustrator and director from Hamilton, Ontario. She’s worked in-house and freelance at a number of animation and design studios in Canada, and has released two independent shorts. Most recently, she directed animation for a National Film Board production. Currently, she is directing at a studio called Fern, and is in production on her newest short, Brightside. As a filmmaker, her goal is to explore emotions that she finds playful, ephemeral, and otherwise difficult to put into words. In her spare time, she makes music and publishes a yearly zine.
