Goganite

My name is Tyler Gogan.  Thank you for taking the time out of your busy day to learn just a little more about me and what makes me who I am.

I was born in Salt Lake City, Utah and kind of grew up everywhere around the state. I never quite settled down in any one city. As I moved a lot, I got to know many people and many faces. I find it nice to be out and about around the various counties and running into somebody I know from one of my many schools.

Ever since I was a young boy I loved watching cartoons.  I always wondered how they made drawings move on a television screen and wanted to learn how. My passion started with a bouncing ball when I was watching Nickelodeon cartoons on a Saturday morning while eating cereal on our old couch. I can still remember the animator coming on the screen and telling kids everywhere how they can draw a simple circle and make it move across the page as if someone had thrown it. It was at that moment I knew I wanted to do what he did, making things come to life on a simple piece of paper.

I currently work as a 3D Animator at Wild Works, a video game studio located in Salt Lake City Ut. I love my job and could not be happier with my current employment as I am now.
