Mark Zoeller has a long affiliation with film and television, awarded two Emmy Awards in Outstanding Achievement in Animation.
"I've worked for all the major studios, Warner Bros., Disney, DreamWorks SKG, Fox, Marvel, and Technicolor to name a few.
Years of representational painting as well as exploring shapes in the realm of character design and storyboard work for films have led to the art I’m creating now. My approach to painting was inspired by inadvertently stacking hundreds of storyboard drawings on top of each other, and realizing the randomness of all of them created their own Zen. Balance from chaos."
After many proven years in the Animation and Film industry, with a foundation in the Fine Arts, Mark was recruited by Laguna College of Art & Design to teach Storyboarding on a college level. During the 11+ consecutive years since that time, Mark has continued to share his knowledge and experience with other colleges including California State University, Fullerton, and Mt San Antonio College. At the same time, Mark makes time for public speaking and consultation. Many of Mark's students have graduated to management positions in the Film industry at studios such as DreamWorks, Nickelodeon, Glitch, and Warner Bros to name a few. Mark is also the owner and manager of HollyKiss House Event Venue and Resort, 2 hours north of New York City. It is an ideal location for films and artists workshops. https://www.hollykisshudsonvalley.com/
