About Me

Holly Danger

Designer and Videographer. Slanted and Enchanted. Predictably unpredictable. Instrument and scarf collector. Wide eyed wanderer. Promoter of change. Beat junky. In & out of tune. Reiki healer. Burner. Sagittarian. Snowboarder. I need an art, travel & music fix every few weeks to stay alive. I have a lethal used-bookshop and costuming addiction. Sometimes the best conversation are when no words are said at all. Energy for energy is my mantra. Contrast, texture and eccentricity always catch my eyes. I’m completely obsessed with documenting the here and now, as well as what is and what was.

You probably know me as Holly Danger, though depending how well you know me, you’d know that it originates from Holly Diane Anger. I’m a Designer at heart, a Videographer by trade, and a VJ in the making. Here you’ll find a collection of thoughts, sketches, upcoming gigs, projects, and experiments, meant to inspire, to excite, to learn, to connect with other designers, and to collaborate ideas.

My studio is based in a multi-colored attic apartment in Stamford, CT. Though most of my time is spent between time & space on trains or in traffic heading to NYC.

I graduated SUNY Purchase College, with a BA in Graphic Design in 2001. For four years my primary focus was on design concepts, typography and print based work. As a result my approach to video and motion is a lot less traditional, but I’m learning to prefer it that way. My entire perspective has shifted since falling in love with the moving image through design.

My personal weapons of choice include:

Brains: Mac Pro, Macbook Pro & Powerbook.

Eyes: Sony HD V1U video camera, Canon SD780 photo camera, Epson Powerlight Projector EX50 & 76C.

Legs: Monopod, Mini & Full tripods.

Imagination: Final Cut, DVD Studio, (CS3 Studio) Photoshop, Illustrator, After Effects, Compressor, Arkaos NuVJ, Arkaos GrandVJ, Livid Union and Ohm controller.
