About Me
A more extensive description in case you want to know what else I like
Glenn Cooney - Multimedia Designer and Digital Artist
I guess the short version of it is that I am a creative person. I have been drawing since I was a little squirt and have always loved toying with the little stories and characters that formed in my head. I thoroughly enjoy writing; essays, short stories, lyrics, concepts... Over the last few years, music has also become a large part of my creativity. I write new music for my band, A Spirited Friction, almost everyday. In the band I am the lead vocalist and rythm guitarist.
As far as my life direction is concerned, I always wanted to eventually become a traditional animator at Disney, but at the moment we are all mesmerised by 3D animation so that direction is in question. However, at university I discovered motion graphics and have inadvertently developed a passion for doing that brand of work too.
