Josh Belford

Josh Belford has been animating since he was 12, teaching himself the ways using MS Paint and Adobe Livemotion. He soon met his first love, Adobe Flash (now known as Adobe Animate) in 2003 and has been using it ever since. Drawing inspiration and motivation from his favorite cartoons, such as Futurama (1999), The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack (2008)_, Adventure Time (2010)_, and the many spectacular works of Hayao Miyazaki, humor and heart are the main ingredients of his own creations. Along with submitting toons to Newgrounds and his own YouTube channel, he has been contracted by Machinima's animation YouTube channel, Happy Hour, in 2013 to animate two video game parodies and has also done animation for Ross Bollinger on Trash Talk (2014). Josh is working on his own animated nonsense, and hopes to help out on more animated gigs and let his imagination run wild on his own show.
