Elisa is a storyboard artist and character designer with 10+ years of experience in the animation industry.

I'm a Brazilian 2D Rigger based in Manchester. I've been working in the animation industry and with Toon Boom for 13 years. Tired of being generalist, in 2017 I decided to focus in become a full-time rigger. And that big decision brought me to the UK where I had the chance to work on amazing projects. I love learning and experimenting new tools, nodes and methods to make cool and light rigs.

Thy is a generalist that loves understanding how everything works and meeting all different types of artists and creators. Her senior film, Skip Tutorial, focused on collaboration and had a team of nearly 50 students which was more than triple the average student film team that year. She started out her career in motion design and video production and later transitioned into preschool series animation and interactive game animation. Thy hopes to one day focus her animation career around food, culture, and education!
