A graduate of Sheridan College's classical animation program and Canadore College's graphic communications program[1], Bryce has been creating numerous cartoons and animations since 1999 working under his business "Frog Feet Productions". His first job was creating the "Ranger Gord's Educational Films" and "Ranger Gord's Safety Tips" cartoons based on the character of the same name for The Red Green Show created by Steve Smith which aired on CBC Television and PBS[2].

He has also contributed animation to numerous music videos and TV commercials airing across Canada and the United States. Trained in traditional animation and graphic design, Bryce has been known to experiment with a variety of styles and techniques including photography, cutout animation, stopmotion, watercolour and other media and various computer software[4].
