My name is Michael Connolly and I’m a 3D Animator who graduated from Middle Tennessee State University with a Bachelor’s degree in Animation in 2022. I also graduated with an Associate's degree in Art back in 2019.

​

     Drawing, animating, modeling, writing, I’m almost always working on some project. I always knew I wanted to do something creative, and by my junior year of high school, I knew I wanted to work in animation. 

​

     I love science fiction and fantasy, especially Dungeons and Dragons, from which a lot of my personal work stems. If I’m not working on something or playing D&D I can be found reading, watching tv, or playing video games.

​

     I’ve recently completed my first animated short film, "The Vanishing Spell”, with my fellow MTSU graduate Aaron Rogers. The film premiered at a screening at MTSU on December 9th, 2022.
