Marc-André Caron, aka MonsieurCaron, is a history teacher, husband, and father of two based in Québec, Canada. His earliest introduction to the hobby came in the form of various LEGO and Bionicle videos on YouTube, inspiring him to try making some films of his own.

Soon, he was asked to make a video for his local Teachers' Union and commissions grew from there. He built his YouTube channel and made more film projects. With the help of QuéLUG (Québec LEGO User Group), he taught a brickfilming class that made a Jurassic Park parody video.

One of Caron's recent projects is a LEGO Ghostbusters video. He says that while many outsiders enjoy it, he got some criticism from animators who didn't like the way characters slide around, something he did because he felt it added to the comedy.

Caron sees a capacity for LEGO and brickfilming to inspire young people:

"In my class, I show my brickfilms to my students and tell them about my journey. I saw in their eyes that they dream of working with LEGO. I tell them that is not as easy as it looks. This is my way to teach them that they can follow their dream, but they still have to work hard, do some not so fun stuff, study and keep dreaming. When you do something you love, you do it well. When you do something well, you do a good job and people will see that. If you’re passionate enough about what you do (LEGOing, singing, dancing, writing…) someday someone will ask you for help and you may end up not working anymore, as you do what you love for a living. LEGO is the door I use to teach my student about passion and persevering."
