Biography

Hello! I’m Seon Shoopman, first name pronounced see-on, an animator and actor. I grew up watching cartoons, drawing them, playing video games, and being a huge movie and tv buff. I graduated from Purdue University in 2018 with a bachelors degree in computer animation, continuing on with a masters degree, graduating in 2021. My first job in the industry was being an animator on the new Universal Horror Movie Classic Monsters theme park ride opening up at Dark Universe at Universal Epic Universe in 2025. After that, I moved to Atlanta, GA to animate on some awesome movies and tv shows. My work and name can be seen on Apple TV, Paramount+, HBO Max, and Netflix.

After a year, I left the animation industry to become an actor. I started attending classes and doing background work on different tv and film sets. After hundreds of auditions, I got my first yes about 5 months later. Since then, I've been in different movies, tv shows, and commercials. In under a year, I became eligible to join the actor's union SAG-AFTRA and won a 2024 Telly Award and Emmy Award. I am now represented by agencies across the Midwest and Southeast.
