El Dettmann is a story artist and illustrator currently based in Los Angeles. They graduated in 2020 with a BFA in Film & Animation from Rochester Institute of Technology, and have been working in the animation industry since. El was drawn to storyboarding as a perfect medium between their two passions, art and writing. They love cute, creepy, fantastical stories with a lot of heart at the center. In their free time, they like drawing their webcomic PROVIL, playing music, and researching the paranormal.

Hello! I am currently a 2D freelance animator. I love animation and I think the most attractive thing to me about it is how animation gives you the freedom to create literally *anything* you want! It's a very stressful process but in the end, it feels so good to see what you drew actually moving!

I always found easier to share feelings and emotions through animation. As a full time job I'm now Animation Director on JoJo & Gran Gran, while in my free time I enjoy creating little animation loops about squishy cats and misbehaving plants.
