In Brett's first on-screen role, only his hands appeared in the commercial for "Skipper's Seafood 'N Chowder House" fish-n-chips. Soon after, he made his way to Zurich, Switzerland where he introduced the "Fresh Start Laundry Detergent" commercial campaign to German television audiences. After studying at the Rational Theatre in Munich, and with over seventy-five commercials, including "Kim Top Line", "Co-op" and "Gold Market" winning numerous awards in Europe, Brett re-located to Los Angeles and received training there from the renowned Harry Mastrogeorge.
