I'VE BEEN TAGGED: 7 THINGS ABOUT BRIAN

1. I am from Raleigh North Carolina, but I currently reside in Savannah, GA. I am in the process of starting my career as an artist, and I'm looking forward to relocating to some amazing destination.



2. Other than my love and passion for stop motion an animation, I am an avid roller coaster, amusement park and theme park enthusist. Ultimately, my life's ambition is to design and build my own theme park.




3. I come from an amazingly wonderful and crazy family. Moving to Savannah to go to school was one of the most exciting, yet hardest things for me to do, considering how close knit my family is.

4. During the summer of 2006, I was fortunate enough to be a puppet fabrication intern at Shadow Machine Films on a show called Moral Orel. I got to work with several animators and fabricators that I admire and look too for inspiration. Not to mention, they worked on several stop motion movies and shows that I love!






5. I love to laugh, and make people laugh. Being silly is probably one of the things that I do best.



6. Before I began studying to become an animator, I was pretty much set on becoming an architect or a mechanical engineer.




7.The most surreal moment of my life was when I was given a cake by Seth Green (but the cake was baked by my buddy ROSA, who is an awesome baker ;D...). I made an elaborate scheme to spark a conversation with Mr. Green before I left to come back to school, but the tables were turned, and thus the joke was played on me.



Sorry, forgot to do this before, but I tag...Michael Granberry.

You get a cake from Seth Green, I almost get run over by David Spade. California, how you play with my emotions.

Waiting for more SCADdies (tm) to make it out here. Or back out here. Because you were here. Before.
