Hello everyone! My name is Darren Kern and I am a military veteran and 3D animator/artist in the Philadelphia area. Prior to attending Drexel University Westphal College of Media Arts and Design, I spent six years in the U.S. Navy’s Naval Special Warfare community as a Special Warfare Combatant-Craft Crewmen (SWCC) working alongside some of the world’s best special forces operators.
It was during my time in service where my passion for creating visual pieces and art began. This ultimately led to Drexel University’s animation/visual effects program. I have skills in both 2D/3D animations utilizing industry standard software including Maya, Blender, Substance Painter, Adobe After Effects, and more! Check out my pages to see what I’ve been up to! If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to one of my social accounts! Thanks for stopping by!
