    Barton Gawboy is Head of Technology for Anohana Production Management & Technologies. He integrates computer graphics technologies into practical production methodology by leveraging experience in management, production, software and hardware. Before Anohana, Barton was Head of Software Development at Dreamworks Feature Animation.

Prior to Dreamworks, he spent over 10 years with the people who originally developed the Symbolics Graphics system and evolved it into the Nichimen Graphics system. As Director of Software Development at Nichimen, and to complement his personal training in athletics, ballet and jazz dance, he led the productization of the Skeletal Animation System, and provided guidance for integrating that with a behavioral/particle system.
