Born in Australia,
high school drop-out at 14,

WITH HIS HEART SET ON HOLLYWOOD

Before receiving an Emmy Award, or working with studios like Industrial Light + Magic, Ubisoft, Paramount Pictures and Blur — or speaking in front of crowds of 5,000+ people on worldwide tour events — Allan was a 14-year old kid from Australia who dropped out second-week of Grade 9.

In the mid 90’s, with no internet or experience, Allan had one goal: to work his way from Australia to Los Angeles, where he would create visual effects and supervise films on set.

“The only thing I really owe to my success was perseverance. I set goals, and I was relentless to achieve them. Success takes hard work, and discipline, and constant, constant, failure—but it just makes the reward when you finally get there so much more worth it.”
