Andrew
Before appearing on LEGO Masters Season 4, Andrew had a long history in the LEGO world.
In 2013, Andrew joined Instagram as CheepJokes. Initially believing the platform will provide him with an opportunity to attract viewers for his short films across to YouTube. So he quickly found a thriving LEGO community and branched out into LEGO photography and comics.
Since then, Andrew has toured CheepJokes around Australia, hosting Stop Motion Animation workshops and he has made LEGO campaigns for Disney, Star Wars, Marvel, and Federation Square.
Andrew was proudly named “Influencer of the Year” at the 2017 Mumbrella CommsCon Awards.
