Artist Lecture 1

Jack Myers, who was the son of an art teacher, previously attended MCA. Hailing from Arkansas, Myers’ work stretches back as Photoshop 64K Atari 800; his main inspiration being Joseph Campbell. He has worked for companies such as: HBO, MTV, CINEMAX, and SHOTIME. At first, Myers did not want to e an animator but, a penniless bohemian. A lot of the times through out his career he suffered from what he called “, The Lizard Brain;” a situation in the brain that controls basic survival functions when it came to showing his work for jobs. The way he delivered his presentation sounded a bit depressing at the beginning but became more upbeat towards the end.
