Ryan Chu's Headshot.jpg

Ryan Chu is a 1st generation Taiwanese-American living in a diverse suburban city within Orange County, CA. He was inspired by live-action movies such as District 9 & Sicario and animated works such as Babar to tell deep, reckless adventures and ludicrous fables with philosophical twists.

 

​Utilizing a cherished childhood character of a hydrophobic sea otter for Ryan’s first animated film, "Deep Fears" went on to appeal to a wide audience from children to animation fans. The film won more than 120 accolades and official selections from the Los Angeles Animation Festival to the Taiwanese American Film Festival.

 

Aside from his creative works, Ryan devotes his time to learning more about his Taiwanese and Asian-American heritage by visiting AAPI museums and checking out local resources in SoCal. Ryan hopes to contribute to the rising representation of Asian-Americans in entertainment.

 

Ryan is currently training to become a certified firearm instructor to continue his hobby of promoting safe & responsible shooting at the range. In another hobby, he immerses himself into homebrew DND campaigns as he drowns himself with mead to act his heart out.
