CHARACTER ANIMATION REEL
ABOUT ME
Hi, I’m Madye! I’m an animator, director, and storyteller. Here you’ll find a selection of my original work.
I am constantly learning and growing when it comes to my craft; After graduating from Brown in 2025, I enrolled as an animation student with AnimSchool, and began gaining industry experience within animation production in the hopes of becoming an effective, capable animator and director. Currently I’m an intern with the Television Academy in LA, and a PA on Feathers, Not Wings, a short currently in production!
I love telling character-driven stories inspired by music, experimentation, creatures and critters of all kinds, and my upbringing in California, and I hope to bring something new to the table when it comes to the type of films I make. I’ve fallen in love with the entire animation process, and my greatest goal with my work is to not only share my passion, but to inspire others to create and tell their own stories.
