DANIEL CITRON
Hi,
I’m Daniel. I am a filmmaker, designer, writer and creative technologist. I am currently creative lead at Google for an experimental new team around interactive video. I just graduated from Harvard University studying the convergence of art and technology.
I love to tell stories. My films have screened at and won awards at many international film festivals including Tribeca Film Festival, The Los Angeles Film Festival, the San Francisco International Film Festival and the Seattle International Film Festival.
Previously, I was a virtual reality designer for Google VR on Daydream. I worked at the MIT Media Lab in the Fluid Interfaces Lab, interned at the Google Creative Lab as a creative and at YouTube as a designer. I also led user interface design on a variety of projects for CS50 at Harvard University, reaching hundreds of thousands of students globally.
