| Introduction | Alex Kobbs is a professional animator and Lego brick enthusiast. A graduate of Fitchburg State Universities's well regarded film program, he began to specialize in stop motion animation in 2007. His Lego Wii short, released in 2007, gained more than 3 million views, and still climbing today. Kobbs' next major hit was the reveal of a Lego Zanzibar model (a scale model of a multiplayer map from the Halo 2 video game). The video became one of the most circulated videos amongst gamers, appearing on major game-news sites such as Kotaku.com and earning a spot on the Halo 3 Legendary Edition DVD. His first professional credit was an additional camera operator on the 2006 crossword puzzle documentary, Wordplay, which was an official Sundance Film Festival selection and nominated four times for best documentary in various events. In 2009 he was commissioned by Bidray.com to create a hand-drawn animated ad that advertised how easy it was to use the site. Kobbs' knowledge of the latest internet, technology and gaming trends enables him to tailor content that is specific and appealing to on line consumers.
