Anthony Thurman graduated with an Associates Degree in Computer Information Systems in 2001. Later on he decided to expand his knowledge and love of Art by enrolling in a Chicago Art School an hour away from his hometown. The only problem was that Anthony didn't have enough money to cover the tuition even with the grants he would receive, so he didn't sign up. Instead of giving up on his dream, he combined the art skills he did have with the computer skills he learned previously in the college he attended and started making his own animated short films.
