bio
Anthony Dusko is a former microbiologist turned fifth grade teacher with a fine arts background, who can now add cutting edge filmmaker to his resume. He found a way to use his artistic ability to help motivate his students; he created a simple animation featuring a grilled cheese sandwich telling the students to get ready for lunch. They loved it, and begged him to make more.
Anthony decided to improve his skills and began studying with Academy Award nominated Paul Fierlinger. Since then, he has created short films for many school topics and uses them like television interstitials to liven up his every day teaching.
Anthony believes that his strengths in creating mobile educational content lie in his ability to create absurd but likeable characters that communicate their lessons quickly but in clever ways that end with a punch line.
