Amy Husted

Amy Husted, birth sign Aquarius.
Single parent of two cats. Favorite time of the year is the fall.
Geek for animation, themed locations, fan of puppets and animatronics.
An artist at heart, and like most creatives that means I think differently.

I have Major Depressive Disorder and PTSD which is technically complex, but who doesn’t am I right?

As a fan of animation, I grew up wanting to be apart of the entertainment industry.
Watching behind the scene clips and bonus features I would dream of being a part of the creation. To make content people enjoy, maybe even helping them escape from their own troubles for a bit. Never thought it was possible for me to achieve. In high school,

I ran my own YouTube channel at night, focusing on video edits and a separate one for traditional speed paints.

I got a taste of what it felt like to create for a small audience and it felt incredible! Went to my local community college got my Fine Arts AA and Communications AA. After graduation…went to work in completely different fields, as most do. I felt hallow. After surviving the darkest year of my life, with my mental health making its grand debut, I started anew.

Decided to pursue my dream and try to take part in the magic. I got an online certificate, learned editing techniques and even interned in a project where I was tasked with textures. Recently tried my hands at storyboarding which is what little me never thought they’d get a chance to do.

Oh shoot I meant to say in the messages before I made a typo.

For clarification I automatically tell people I have a Communications AA because no one knows what an Arts and Humanities General Studies AA is.

So I have a Fine Arts AA and an Arts and Humanities General Studies AA.
