Biography
Anthony Sturmas began his career as a graffiti artist in Los Angeles and Long Beach, California, in the early 1980s. He was inspired to get into storytelling and comics soon after, and in the late '90s, he received a Marvel Comics Scholarship to The Kubert School, located in Dover, New Jersey. Instead of taking advantage of that scholarship, however, he chose to stay on the West Coast and began knocking on the doors of businesses in Los Angeles and painting murals throughout the city.
He has worked in commercial arts and entertainment as a fulltime storyboard artist over twenty-four years, creating storyboards and previsualization for feature films, commercials as well as medical visuals.
In 2006 Anthony Sturmas began teaching a pilot program at USC, received my BFS in Multimedia Animation from The Art Institute of Los Angeles CA, in 2006, won a scholarship to the prestigious Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California, where he was formally trained by Marc Stricland (Advanced Illustration).
In Los Angeles Anthony Sturmas has had the honor to work with some of best entertainment companies and film directors, such as Twitch Prime (Amazon), Nickelodeon, ATT, Sprint, Toyota, Boy Boy West Coast, Meital Dohan, Wyclef Jean, the legendary Iggy Pop (Unagi Commercial/Director Daniel Benhamo), and (POTC) Pirates of the Caribbean for Pretty Little Liars, director Steven Kiefer. Other film directors I have worked with from the movie Sharknado director Anthony Ferrante for "Hello Hero", The Inhabitant directed by Jerren Lauder, Wages of Sin directed by Viktor Rios starring Danny Trejo and “Z Dead End” by director Robert Restro as the senior storyboard artist starring Kane Hodder and Robert LaSardo, “ENOUGH” with director Michele LaBrrucherie as the senior storyboard artist 2022.
