Career
Dan Farr co-founded Daz 3D Inc. in 2000.[3] It develops and publishes 3D digital content and software for creative professionals and hobbyists.[4] Two of the products Farr helped create while at DAZ were Daz Studio and Genesis Platform.[5]
In 2005 Farr, along with his partners at Daz 3D, created an illustrated Christmas book entitled Mr. Finnegan’s Giving Chest using Daz 3D's products and featured actor Dick Van Dyke.[6]
Shortly after leaving Daz 3D in the spring of 2012, Farr began planning Salt Lake Comic Con, a biannual comic book convention. The name of the convention was changed to FanX after a lawsuit was filed by Comic-Con International (CCI), the nonprofit that runs San Diego Comic-Con.[7] In 2018, Farr announced he would reduce his roles in FanX after allegedly mishandling a sexual harassment complaint.[8]
