Hello, my name is Brent Kennedy.

I have been animating for about five years now (in SFM for three) and have spent the last two and a half years studying animation at the Savannah College of Art and Design. I'm one of the moderators of OSFM and have been a member since it's creation in 2012. Challengers who don't know me from OSFM chat probably know me from the 2013 short Lil Guardian Pyro. Over the course of these years I learned indispensable animation techniques from industry veterans and the value of working together in a crew of passionate animators. The goal of this group is to bring those ideals of daily routine, group motivation, and uncompromised quality to the SFM community in the form of an open and friendly art club.

Zachariah Scott created OSFM as a place to meet and work with composers, modelers, sound designers, directors, animators and all of the other specialists that go into creating an animated short. This group isn't meant to replace OSFM as a place to meet people and collab on animated shorts (though any member is free to work on projects as they please). This group is an offshoot of OSFM dedicated to improving the user's understanding of animation through regularly scheduled exercise.

I believe that as a group, we can help one another to achieve a greater potential, both as animators and artists. And I'm happy to have all of you talented people on the same crew.
