Pter McLean is a freelance creative (ptermclean.com) from the northern borders of Upper Michigan. When other kids were asking to do what “normal kids” do during the summer, Pter was asking to go to animation camp at Disney Studios. This lead to his two degrees in animation and design and landed him his first gig with TrainMaster and Union Pacific modeling 3d worlds. He has also been a huge fan of cartoons since a young age with influences such as Genndy Tartakovsky, Bill Plympton, Don Hertzfeldt, studio ghibli, Katsuhiro Otomo and an enormous other list of huge influences. Pter currently lives and works in Portland, ORE.
