Episode 13: Movie Making with Anthony Sturmas

Movie Making Podcast Guest:  Storyboard Artist Anthony Sturmas 

"Anthony Sturmas is LA based storyboard concept artist who originally started out his career as a LA Graffiti artist in the early 80’s. 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.

In 2006 Anthony Sturmas began teaching a pilot program at USC. He received his BFS in Multimedia Animation from The Art Institute of Los Angeles CA, also in 2006, and won a scholarship to the prestigious Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California, where he was formally trained by Marc Stricland.  His storyboard mentors are Bill Recinos from 'Ghostbusters' & Douglas Kirk 'DreamWorks”. He has written, produced and directed a music video as well as an animated film called “The Redstorm” by Asturmas Studios.

In Los Angeles I have had the honor to work with some of best entertainment companies and film directors, such as Twitch Prime (Amazon), Nickelodeon, ATT, NBC, Sprint, Toyota, the legendary Iggy Pop (Unagi Commercial), and (POTC) Pirates of the Caribbean for Pretty Little Liars, director Steven Kiefer. Other film directors I have worked with in the past, from the movie Sharknado Anthony Ferrante for Hello Hero, The Inhabitant with director Jerren Lauder, Co-Director Ethan Manequis from the classic film “Machete”.  “Z Dead End” by director Robert Restro as the senior storyboard artist starring Kane Hodder and Robert LaSardo. Finally, “ENOUGH” with director Michele LaBrrucherie."
