Bio
Derek Pante
Shawn is one of the most talented and creative individuals I've ever had the pleasure of working with. Not only can he come up with great ideas, he has the technical capabilities to make any idea a reality, no matter how insane or impossible it may seem. He is a rarity in the motion design field in that he is not just concerned with how something looks (style), but how it fits within the greater context of the project, taking into account factors like a client's goals, the target audience, and whether or not the work he's doing is the best/freshest it can possibly be. In short, Shawn's a beast. A humble, bearded beast.

Feb 2007 - Apr 2009
I had the amazing opportunity to share my passion for snowboarding being an full time instructor for Park City Mountain resort. I taught both adult groups and private clients. This gave me the chance to work with amazing people from ages as young as 4 to adults in their 60s. I have gained so much from this experience and would love to pass on what I have learned to others.
