Emily   Leistiko

I have about seven years of animation industry experience with my last gig being at Dog Ears for two years in collaboration with Cartoon Saloon. I have learned so much from working on a handful of short films and multiple seasons of childrens' animated series as a full time character animator. I hope to expand my horizons and work on many more productions - both in animation and or design roles. I am always striving to improve my skill-sets and love learning.
 

I work very well with other team-mates, and am also fully capable of working independently. I pick up new concepts and softwares quickly.
 

Depending on my current circumstances, I am open to either freelance work, or moving to be able to work in- house where the job is based.
 

My greatest passion is telling stories through visual mediums, to help convey the personalities of a colourful cast and help bring brilliant worlds to life - be that solo or in a team. Let me help you tell your fantastic stories - let's be professional escapists.
 

My career interests lie in:

2D animation, illustration, and concept art for any medium - be that for series, films, games, apps, or even publications!
