ABOUT ME
Hi!
My name is Elpida and i am a freelance 2D Character Animator and Story Artist based in Greece.
At the age of seven, an Anime series based on female superheroes inspired me to follow the path of Arts and then Animation itself.
In April 2012, i graduated with an integrated Master in Fine and Applied Arts(Painting), where i used my graduation thesis as an opportunity to dive into characters and then i took a Master course in Character Animation.
Ever since, i have been collaborating with animation studios and institutions across the world, working on films and commercials.
Feel free to contact me at ef@elpidafousteri.com.
