My name is Tyler Oswald, but to most I go by “Ozzie”.
My story begins from a young age: I always loved telling stories. It might be embarrassing to admit, but up into my early teens, I would spend more time playing make-believe with the neighbors; creating characters and entire worlds to explore in our imaginations. That pass-time is likely what gave birth to my interest in being a part of entertainment media.
The magic of television, movies, and video games was always a great mystery to me. It wouldn’t be until the age of 15 that I learned how accessible it was to create content. I learned about non-linear editing software, how to frame a shot, and how to write a script. Fortunately, the era of “New Media” began during this time, so my education grew alongside web-based platforms.
Now, I find myself in love with the process of production. From visual design to video production, it’s the inception, creation, and execution which is most enjoyable for me. Training and education on how to improve my skills has never stopped since 15, and I don’t plan on stopping any time soon.
