Ethan Roffler interviews CG Supervisor Daniele TostiRead more: Ethan Roffler interviews CG Supervisor Daniele TostiEthan Roffler 
 I recently had the honor of interviewing this VFX genius and gained great insight into what it takes to work in the entertainment industry. Keep in mind, these questions are coming from an artist’s perspective but can be applied to any creative individual looking for some wisdom from a professional. So grab a drink, sit back, and enjoy this fun and insightful conversation. 
 Ethan
 To start, I just wanted to say thank you so much for taking the time for this interview!Daniele 
 My pleasure.
 When I started my career I struggled to find help. Even people in the industry at the time were not that helpful. Because of that, I decided very early on that I was going to do exactly the opposite. I spend most of my weekends talking or helping students. ;)Ethan (more…)
 That’s awesome! I have also come across the same struggle! Just a heads up, this will probably be the most informal interview you’ll ever have haha! Okay, so let’s start with a small introduction!
