In 2021, Animax is happy to share more in-depth stories with our clients, prospects, and fans! Throughout the year we will be posting articles that will focus on an individual staff member, highlighting their work, passions, and philosophies.

We hope through this series that you will get to know more about us - who we are, what we do, and how we operate on a more personal level. We have a veritable trove of talented individuals - designers, engineers, sculptors, painters, stitchers, fabricators, managers, producers, programmers, machinists, and makers of all sorts. We can't wait to show off their prowess and - more importantly - their passion for the work they do to bring our clients’ characters to life.

Stay tuned throughout the year as we share our stories one by one!

Our first story comes in the form of a film. Titled “From the Clay,” this video is about our lead sculptural artist Chris Grondin. Chris has worked with us for over 3 years, coming from a diverse background in special effects makeup, bigfoot carving, and marine biology. Originally from a mill town in Maine, Chris has been able to live and work all over the country before making his way to Nashville and his home at Animax.

Enjoy this look into Chris’ work, his life, and his process.
