My name is R. Brian Wilson. I am a computer animator with technical, engineering and artistic background as a character animator, primary setup artist and CG artist at Sealund & Associates. I was a draftsman at HSA Engineering, where I was responsible for technical setup, finalizing projects and training new associates. I am a 9 year acting veteran at Busch Gardens’ annual Howl-O-Scream event. A former manager of Mannequin Murals, where I was responsible for designing and painting murals as well as managing 6 other artists. My long-term goal is to be an animation lead on a major motion picture. Short-term, my goal is to improve my demo reel and do whatever it takes to get hired full time into an animation company.
I am critical and analytical, observant, imaginative, artistic, hard on deadlines, a have an artistic, technical and theatrical background.
On a personal level, I’m pretty laid back and am constantly on the move. Right now, I’m juggling three jobs as well as this competition on top of trying to finish up an animated short for the festival season. But I hope there’s never a moment in my life where I can’t step back, take a breath and have a good laugh. I love rollerblading, playing volleyball, jogging (I used to be on the USF track team), and above all coming up with new projects to work on. My projects are my passion, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Wish me luck.

Brian you truly are “In A League Of Your Own”. I can’t imagine all the work it took to create this stunning presentation. You better clear a spot on your mantle for the First Place award because when the contest ends, you’ll be taking a victory lap and doing backflips if the voters get it right.
Good Luck,
Pat M.

Brian, I’m glad Tom stuck with voting. We’ve had several friends and family members tell me or dad that they are having trouble getting their User ID and passwords to work. Some still can’t get on. It’s frustrating to say the least. So know that people are trying to vote for you. People love your artwork and are proud of you!

Brian,
That was sooooo wierd and I loved the unexpected ending. The facial expressions and the views from the character’s perspective were incredably effective. You’ve done great work for us too. We’d hate to lose you but you are far too talented for technical graphics alone

You are so far beyond the level of “requirement” for this competition. The judges maybe don’t realize how digital art works. This is not a rehashing if you did it all over again. You prove that you are what the hiring art world wants, and that should make you number one right off the bat! What a neat idea… And you are so driven and aggressive, which makes you ROCK!
