Actually came to the US from Canada to study animation but did voiceover work in his off hours, which eventually became his main career.

I've always been a fan of DreamWorks movies, especially this character, in particular. It's just so odd, to begin with, because this amazingly manly, sexy voice comes out of him. It's so unusual. For a performer, it's a role of a lifetime. I've gotta thank Antonio Banderas for creating such a great character. Essentially, it's just him, which is one of the trickiest parts about voicing such an iconic role, or any iconic role, for that matter. It's not like he's even doing a voice. He's just being himself. I started out as a character layout artist, which means I was drawing. I was an artist drawing poses that were to be animated. As a study of the genre, as a whole, you look at everything from the art, the cast, the writing, the music. It has a lot to live up to, but I think with today's technology, I'm actually amazed that it's out as soon as it is. I feel like we're still just scratching the surface of recording these episodes, and yet, here we are with the episodes on Netflix.
