Donna Tracy is a visual effects artist whose work on numerous feature films over more than 25 years includes Star Wars and Spider-Man. She deflty moved from traditional film, animation and visual effects to the digital production process in an ever shifting and fickle industry. She applies this deftness to her installation artwork. A fine example is, "Cloudwoman", shown at the old Los Angeles Jail in 1998. It was a collaborative work with Jael Lehmann and Ann Monn that gave voice to Olive Oatman who became Cloudwoman. Another work of interest is a digital print series she created entitled, "Virtual Species or Digital Waste" (2005), that was developed out of small discarded and unused scraps of texture patches salvaged from the digital dustbins of the digital film making process. This discarded digital trash is called "digitritus," (digital ditritus). She likens it to peeling paint or bark that inspires you to create something else out of it. She has presented, written and published about copyright issues in regards to this work. Her masters in art studies were at the California Institute of the Arts in the Art Program. An animated work, "Nichelodeon: A Peep Show", was recently projected (2006) at the MOMA exhibition ''TOMORROWLAND: CalArts in Moving Pictures'' (former Cal Arts students work.) In 2001, she resigned from her position at Sony Pictures, to teach at Chaffey College. She has moved on from there to start (OmniCosm Studios ) with Adolf Schaller. They recently completed a commission for the Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles - a series of new planet landscapes, Mercury, Venus, Mars and Pluto, for the Deep Space Exhibit. Currently, she is in development with Adolf Schaller and Michael Ferriter (Pure Light Images) on the creation of a 3D film series for multi-venue theater productions based on astronomical phenomena. Their first two productions are, "Journey to a Black Hole 3D" and "Star Blast 3D: A Supernova Experience". ==External links== * *(''Digitritus: virtual species or digital waste: ownership in the information age'' ) by Donna Tracy *(''Tracy will bring magical talents to digital lab'' ) *(''A Hair-Raising Show'' ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Donna Tracy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
