<br>My name is Ian Wenzler and I have been in love with film since I was about 10 years old. It started one night, and I was messing around with my mom's camera. I took a bendable, plastic skeleton and made my first stop-go animation. I've written a lot of story lines since then for fun in my spare time and was eventually able to really start filming short films in high school. My junior year I won 1st place in short film for the peoria fine arts film festival for a short I did called "Portal Boy." You can watch this short on you tube or put in this link," http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h3Vyycrq3O0 " In my senior year I entered in a short film and almost won first place, but also entered in animation and won 3rd place. I live and breath film, I feel that with a lot of support we could make something incredible. Film at this point is literally my life and I love it! <br>
