About
Editor, president, and artist. Scott Marvel has been a force in the Chicago production community for 20 years. Besides guiding the aesthetic and business direction of Daily Planet, he also runs a t-shirt company, Teetsy.com. Is he the rudder? the wind?? the sails? No man is an island, but I guess one could be a boat.

Office guru by day, writer/director by night, Tom often has a lot on his plate. However, he is a man of large appetites and always comes back for seconds.

Matthew's goal in life was to write this bio, and now having looked through the wrong end of the telescope toward its completion, has learned the valuable lesson that his life is not yet over enough to write a proper bio.

About
Jon Adler came to the world of motion graphics by way of film and photography. His lifestyle is heavily influenced by, though not always reflective of, 50s and 60s modern design, the Velvet Underground, Stanley Kubrick and Wes Anderson films, and all things vintage and nostalgic. He also enjoys 5 pocket corduroy pants, Penguin sweaters, and hopes to one day be the proud owner of an actual Eero Aarnio pod chair. If you have one for sale at a reasonable price, you know where he is.

Transplant from Detroit, Jason has spent the past couple years building up his design and animation chops with experience from the technical side of post production. When not burning his retinas in front of the screen, he's checking out the architecture around town or trying a new restaurant. Probably one with bacon wrapped dates.

Deborah is a graphic designer put to motion. Receiving a second design degree majoring in Visual Effects and Motion Graphics opened new avenues for her to apply her knowledge of type, color, and clean lines within 3D space, film, and motion. Deborah loves handmade crafts, smart title sequences, being on set with a film crew, and she can wrap cable "over-under" like nobody's business.

On the first day there was chaos. On the second day, there was Dan Tiffany. Dan is relentlessly creative, having worked in sculpture, painting, tattoos, woodwork, hand-made journals, and pen & ink. He earned a BFA in visual effects and motion graphics, merging the traditional with the digital -- the proof is on the screen. He is also a trained phlebotomist, so watch yourself!

Tim invariably gives a disheartened sigh whenever he is asked to write a bio for himself. Let's keep this simple.
Olives. Baseball. Back to the Future. The Ocean. Non-Fiction. Bath Poufs.
