- Chaz Baragiola, better known simply as Chazzy, or to those who tune into the Side Projekt Podcast, the host, Chazzy, the Chazasaurus Rex! (a long running bit on the show).
Coming from a musical background - as an artist, engineer & producer - stepping away from that aspect of his life & only participating sparingly, such as composing for cosplay themes, show themes, & more - decided to put his focus into his other life long loves of: gaming, film, cosplay, comedy, acting - content creation as a whole - & more - which started with a podcast.
Often having a comedic approach, and all out wild & high energy to the show - alongside constructing his own skits to act in - he's stated many times it helps to break out of his own shell, and unapologetically be himself. The many guests featured on the podcast range from the many cosplayers, filmmakers & more, serve as a place to get to know these creatives in a way never seen before. He, as well as the show, have become a staple in the cosplay community especially.
The creation of the Side Projekt Podcast has led to Chazzy's various workings within the convention scene, as both a videographer (press) and a host, across Comic Con based conventions in New York, Los Angeles, & San Diego - Anime based conventions such as Anime Pasadena, Riverside, & Las Vegas - as well as WonderCon in Anaheim, Cosplay World Con in Richmond, VA, and more. His workings have also led him into a stint as the former host and producer of Anime Talks, a celebrity-based interview show that was featured on the Anime Fire Network, alongside a behind the scenes videographer for Anime Fire and it's sister company, Nerdbot Studios.
Chazzy recently dipped his toes into the film scene as a writer, director, composer, producer, editor, and providing the score for his own short fan film: Ciri - A Witcher Tale, stating more filmwork on the horizon within these aspects, as well as acting & voice acting himself.- IMDb Mini Biography By: Side Projekt, LLC
