Brandon Betts

VP of Production

Educated in TV production and film studies from UGA, Brandon pivoted from creative aspirations to production management after discovering a preternatural love for delivery specs. Fortunate to be born in the birthplace of Adult Swim, Atlanta, GA, he fulfilled a life goal by producing animation on such series as Aqua Teen Hunger ForceSquidbillies, and Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell. He champions credit to artists, a respectful work/life balance, and endeavors to be the resonant frequency of calmness on productions.
