Hello! ✸
I'm Beatriz, a 2D Animator and Designer based in London.
With 5 years of industry experience, I've worked with household names such as Studio AKA, Ritzy Animation and Moonbug Entertainment. I've worked with clients such as the BBC, HBO, Warner Brothers, Sony Music, Sky, etc.
My freelance work spans from illustration to character animation, combining design-led visuals for short-films, series, music videos, and commercial content with solid technical skills in Adobe Animate, TV Paint, Toonboom Harmony and more.
