Profile

Daniel Wagner was involved in creating and running a social-change-focused viewer-sponsored TV station in Los Angeles; was a Radio News & Public Affairs Director in Albuquerque, New Mexico; was the Exhibitions Coordinator for the San Francisco International Video Festival; has been directing and shooting music videos since two years before MTV started; and has 25 years of Camera Department experience in the LA film industry as a Focus Puller, a Camera Operator, and a DP.

Today, Daniel is a Senior Lecturer in the School of Creative Industries at Unitec. He lectures in moving image; emerging media; and professional practices.

He has a contemporary arts practice weaving moving image together with his poetry. His research interests relate to the transformations of approach, methodology, functions and sensibilities between the world of Film and that of New Media.

Daniel holds a Master of Creative Technologies from Auckland University of Technology. His thesis proposed a new approach to moving image education in light of exponential change now occurring in every facet of emerging media.
