This begs the question what kind of animation did he produce in college?
Found a old profile (ca 2005) from the Santa Monica College here:

It looks like he took online courses. He has an Associates degree in animation not a Bachelors or Masters (yes you too can be the king of cartoons if the price is right). Never-mind the risk involved in pursuing an arts degree of any kind.
Tho producing such notable alumni as Arnold Schwarzenegger it is important to distinguish between a community college arts education and one obtained at say Cal Arts (alums now at Pixar etc).
Could this also be our guy on a adobe forum:

He's talking about this:

So far I have yet to find any examples of animation he's done outside of Yandere Sim.
