Early Life

Career
Minvera Software
After to moving to Minneapolis to attend a graphic arts school, Gasaway joined Minerva software, a developer for Softimage. Gasaway operated as an animator, putting the software to use, and acted as technical support. He worked trade shows, demonstrating the software as well.
Television Monster
A short film entirely created by Gasaway representing robotic monsters bent on destroying all that is good. One monster runs across two younger monsters playing with a ball, dressed in the colors of Earth. The monster has to make a choice between conforming with the good monsters or staying his course of destruction. The short played at many festivals and was a part of a video compilation.
Walt Disney Imagineering
Gasaway moved to Los Angeles to join the Walt Disney company’s VR division. He worked as a character animator on such VR titles including Hercules, Toon Town, and the Pirates of the Caribbean.
Jak and Daxter

Help Me
When he moved to Pittsburgh, PA, Gasaway wrote a supernatural horror film and hoped to raise the initial $2 million to shoot it.
