“Brad is a phenomenal teacher. Everything is possible with Brad and nothing is off limits! Whatever your learning style, Brad will adapt and strive for improvements for all involved! He is well spoken and and happy to explain things in detail should you not understand something. Things are step by step with him and you won’t feel left behind. I learned so much from Brad in a short timeframe, not just about Animation but about how I learn. Thanks Brad!””

Some Student Feedback
“Brad is an excellent instructor who really cares about his students. He is very kind and supportive, as well as a joy to be around! Even on a busy schedule he makes time to help out and hear out anyone who needs him. I would highly recommend learning from him, it will definitely be a quality education!”
“OMG where to begin. Brad is my favorite instructor, period. And I’m not even his student anymore! I cannot stress how much of a blessing it was to have crossed paths with him. He’s taught me so many masterfully genius artistic concepts that I continue to use to this very day. He’s taught me to be professional without forgetting to be silly, the two can coexist and SHOULD coexist. He’s a great role model, full of humility, care and understanding.”
Take a look at the fun & creative works from past events, lessons, workshops & Cartoon Camps!
