 Biography
Daniele Tirinnanzi was born in Florence, Italy on the 27th of February 1979. Since he was a child he has always expressed interest and passion for art. At the age of 11 he bought "The making of Micheal Jackson's Thriller" on VHS and was deeply inspired by Rick Baker's work. That's when he started to realize he wanted a future in special make-up effects, and started learning primitive techniques. In 1992 he visited relatives in Los Angeles where, for the first time, he comes in contact with the magic of Hollywood and is truly amazed. In the same year he enrolled at the Institute of Art of Florence where he followed sculpture, advertising, photography and theatrical scenery classes for six years. In those years he continued experimenting in his bedroom learning all he could about make-up effects by trial and error. In 1999 he contacts Dick Smith, from whom he learns a lot thanks to his course, the greatest source of information on special make-up techniques in the world. In 1999 he took the special make-up effects course at Make-up Designory school in Los Angeles, which really helped him in refining the techniques he had been practicing at home. He's been working in Europe as a sculptor, painter and animatronic designer ever since. His credits include many film, TV and commercial productions as well as theme park animatronic characters.
