Meet Scott Lemmer, Mentor, Class 3

My Mentor for Class 3 is Scott Lemmer! Really cool guy, actually graduate not too long ago from a rather prestigous animation program in Canada, and then went on to work for DNA Studios in Texas. DNA's just finished up production on 'Ant Bully', a feature that's coming out soon, and they're actually laying off a lot of their talent, I think including Scott, so I'm not sure what he's up to right now, since it's been about 3 months since I've really talked with him. But he's a great example of how quickly you get worked into this industry if you have talent. He's a fairly young guy, baby faced in fact, but has a wealth of knowledge. He was a pleasure to have as a Mentor, even though I'm sure I out age him by at least 5 years, probably more like 8! I feel old.
Looks like he's getting his portfolio site ready to look for a new job (another clear industry negative, the potential that, as an animator, you become ex[pendable once the work load slows) so his website professional website (www.scottlemmer.com) is down, but he does have a student site still up, you can find a link to that to the right of this article under my Mentors.
