About Me.
Hi! I'm Bhavna Madan, an animator, visual development artist, and illustrator currently based in London. Before my MA in Character Animation, I worked as a freelance artist in the publishing field. I've illustrated book covers and character art for many published authors including Alice Oseman, Becky Albertalli and Anika Hussain.
As an animator, I'm focused on 2D animation and willing to explore more. The software I'm most proficient in are TVPaint, Callipeg and Procreate Dreams. I've also dabbled with ToonBoom, After Effects and a little bit of Maya for 3D animating.
Education
2016-2020
B.Cra Digital Media Arts
Srishti Institute of Art, Design and Technology - Bangalore
2022-2024
MA Character Animation
UAL: Central Saint Martins - London
I studied Digital Media Arts leaning towards Animation and worked on the animated loop 'Star-Borne' during my final year. I gained most of the film theory and pre-production knowledge I have during this degree.
Moved to London to further pursue my career as an animator in 2022 as an MA Character Animation student at Central Saint Martins after two years of working remotely as a character illustrator. During my time in CSM, I've relearned and solidified my animation basics and I worked on the film 'The Original Human' during my second last semester. My grad film 'If I Raised My Mother' was completed in May 2024 and won the 2024 MullenLowe NOVA For Fresh Creative Talent award.
