the story so far

Hi, I'm Patten, founder of ZedBear Media.

By profession, I'm an animation production professional. By nature, I'm a storyteller, researcher, and lifelong explorer of creative worlds.

Over the years, I've worked across animation and media production while developing my own projects, stories, and ideas. My interests range from animation history and visual storytelling to literature, film, worldbuilding, and creative development. I'm fascinated by the journey that takes an idea from a sketch in a notebook to a finished piece of work.

ZedBear Media was created as a home for that journey. It's a place to share original projects, development diaries, creative essays, and the discoveries that inspire them. Whether I'm exploring a new story concept, researching a forgotten piece of animation history, or building an entirely new world, I'm driven by curiosity and a belief that creativity begins with asking questions.

Thanks for stopping by and joining the adventure.
