CREATORS SPOTLIGHT - Brendan Giglio
Brendan Giglio
Brendan Mirijello-Giglio has been a Montrealer since he was born in 1999. Besides making and watching movies, his favourite things to do are playing video games and watching anime. Some of his favourite game series include Sonic the Hedgehog, Persona, and Danganronpa.
Brendan joined Spectrum Productions at the very beginning of 2016, instantly bonding with his peers when he did an improvised parody of The Ring on his first day. Since then, he's been acting, writing, directing, and even sometimes animating, and it makes him excited every time.
Brendan’s first animated series, Paperson, only lasted 2 episodes due to lack of motivation to draw, but the idea may come back in the future if pitched. His real passion comes out in his most known role in Spectrum filmography as his original superhero, The Shadow. With the help of Sam Clark, the two grew what was originally a stand-alone project into an extended superhero universe. He has reprised his role many times, with a solo movie in the works and a fanfic from which it will be loosely adapted from.
His dream is to become an actor and film maker, though voice actor is another option!
