He is well-known in the Friday Night Funkin' fandom for creating several mods. He is now serving as a cutscene animator for the official game.
Involvement
Panzu's involvement in Friday Night Funkin' began when he made 2 reskin mods: one of Hatsune Miku replacing Daddy Dearest and another of his original character, Carol Pagan, replacing Girlfriend and later Pico; Carol eventually became a fan-favorite character in the modding community. Panzu would later create various fan animations and several other mods like Vs Tord, Vs Sunday, Madness Vandalization, The Holiday Mod and FUNKIN IS MAGIC. He would receive support from the developers for his fan content, even receiving special thanks from ninjamuffin99 in the game's credits.
During a Twitch stream, while in a Twitter Space titled "Random Shish, you know how it be", PhantomArcade revealed that Panzu was hired to help with animating certain cutscenes for the game, along with fellow mod artists Funni342 and DegoDraws.[2]
