About Frozen Beach
Frozen Beach Studios was established in 2008 as the offspring of Across the Pond Studios. It was the dream of Stephan Nilson to expand the studio to produce not only great comics and graphic novels but start working more in multimedia with a focus on television and film. Stephan brought his idea to his two close friends and long time collaborators, Charles Pritchett and Wesley Gunn and immediately the three starting putting together the groundwork to launch the studio in early 2009.
Together the three creators have over thirty years experience in writing, print production, animation and filmmaking. Their combined skill set results in a perfect balance of talent and experience required to create and produce any project from start to finish.
The name Frozen Beach Studios is a homage to the creators’ home bases in sunny Florida, the seasonal New York and the frozen coast of Prince Edward Island.

Who is Frozen Beach?
Stephan Nilson
Born and died in Okinawa. His attempt at emancipation was thwarted by the military doctor, and now resides in South Florida, which he is convinced he is still dead and this is hell. Stephan spends his days filming documentaries and informational films for the State of Florida’s Everglades restoration projects (ok, propaganda), and his evenings are filled with writing comics and filler for web sites. Stephan has been involved with many comic projects at Image, Alias and DC Comics as well as comic related projects for Smalllville, Red Dwarf and Ghost Whisperer. Stephan lives with the girl of his dreams, his dog and three cats. He hopes to upgrade to a gorilla someday.
Wesley Gunn
Born and raised in Boston Massachusetts, Wesley began drawing at an early age. His interest in comics and art carried him though high school and propelled him to move to NYC to attend the School of Visual Arts. After recieving a BFA he has been working professionally for companies such as Nickelodeon, ABC Radio, Palomar Pictures, Marvel comics, UpperDeck, Image comics and many many more.
Charles Pritchett
Brought up on the wrong side of the tracks in the bustling metropolis of Labrador City, Newfoundland Canada - Charles is really terrible at writing epic sounding biographies of his life and times. Someday he will retire, think about writing his memoir and then put it off until it's too late. He enjoys a fine stew from time to time and has worked for Image Comics, Alias Enterprises, Arcana, and Devil's Due amongst others.
