Info
- SummaryGreetings,
My name is Kenneth Pedersen and I am a Digital Artist. I specialize in visual effects and motion graphic work. Compositing, Rotoscoping, Editing, Color Grading, Motion tracking are the my areas of expertise.
My skills are both top notch and varied. I have a voracious appetite for learning new software packages, skillsets in my field and new creative techniques. I am at my best doing problem solving and love a good challenge.
Previous to my life in Digital Art I worked in computers for 14 years in a technical support role and am very competent in troubleshooting all operating systems, web development, and networking problems, which puts me in the particular position of not only being a creative force but also being able to solve any possible technical problems I might come across.
I have three degrees, a Bachelor in Film, and two Associates, one in Digital Animation and Visual Effects, and the other in Electronics & Computer Technology. In addition, I am a font of knowledge on just about every sort of space craft and alien technology that has ever crossed the screen. I look forward to piloting your next project.

It’s hard to describe oneself in words, words have context that everyone associates differently. I was born in Mobile, Alabama in the year 1975. That I work in Film & Video, that the things I enjoy are art, but that really only tells you what I do, like and where I am from.
I have a voracious love of life, music, food, passion, art, sciences, literature, and the cinema. I dislike genres and labels of most things in life, I enjoy what I enjoy, be it Punk, Opera, County, Mudding, or Physics, I am just at home in a Ti-chi form as I am in a mosh pit, or spoken word lecture. I enjoy cooking immensity and am always coming up with experimental recipes and modification of old favorites. I have a love of dancing in all forms from slow-dancing with a loved one to high energy club dancing. I read a great deal of books but most of the favorites include Speculative fiction (Sci-fi/Fantasy/Horror) as to me the question of “what-if” is the second most powerful human phrase behind “I love you”. Movies and Filmmaking are both my passion and choice of profession, as I feel that story telling is the most ancient and passionate way we can impart of view of the world, on the ones left behind. I am liberal to the point but will not say I am of an particular party, but feel that the rights of all genders, countries, races, theology’s, and orientations should be respected and honored. I am very spiritual but not religious, nor do I care much for organized religions in general.
in general I seem to not be able to be classified in very many ways, I don’t fit neatly into any box or ideology, and am quite continent with that. …
