Versatile is how Andre Jacobus describes himself. A young, up and coming animator, he hopes to someday make his own debut in the international animation industry and work alongside other great animators on the production of animated blockbusters.
Born Andre Damian John Jacobus, the 23-year-old artist hails from the Indigenous community of Kabakaburi Mission in the Pomeroon River and is currently employed as a graphic artist at local marketing agency – Artistic Marketing.
In an exclusive interview with The Scene, Dre, as he prefers to be called, related that he got involved in the arts from a very young age; a hobby that was greatly supported by his father, who, he said, was an artist himself.
“I started drawing from a very young age. I guess I got the genes from my father. He used to do art too and I use to watch him and he used to push me to do it as well,” Dre related.
