PAINTER | DESIGNER | CREATIVE DIRECTOR | DRUMMER | ATHLETE

Brett Sizemore has been a professional designer and painter for well over a decade, leading creative teams of art directors and production talent. He headed the design team at Arthur Andersen for seven years, and worked as a CG Artist at a creative firm in Hollywood catering to major film studios (ColumbiaTristar, Paramount, and Disney) and top-ten ad agencies in L.A. (Bozell, McCann, Grey, FCB, Creative Artists Agency).

Brett wrapped up a senior creative tenure at Amgen in Thousand Oaks after nearly eight years, and quickly founded Slingshot Studios, Inc. in Westlake Village specializing in “launching” brand identities such as Protein Pathways and Coastview Capital, headed by former Amgen CEO and SVPs. He has a degree in design and studied at American Film Institute, immediately winning first place and Best of Festival nomination at the International Film Festival in Chicago for his first reel as a director. Brett is a successful drummer, has worked as a Personal Fitness Trainer, and is a winning competitive surfer —taking two consecutive Ventura County Invitationals. He’s currently a WSA Gatorade Championship Series surfing competitor, and still has never ridden a longboard  :-p
