About

I’m Maria Puma, a Visual Development Artist and Animator with training in visual development, art direction, and storytelling, along with a background in film production where I support both animated and live-action projects through strong visual design and animation skills. I enjoy shaping characters and environments with clear visual storytelling—building concepts, developing backgrounds, and animating key performance shots that feel consistent, expressive, and production-ready.

I’ve contributed to short films in production and development roles, including background design and visual development for animated principals, as well as art direction and visual continuity across projects. From my film studies to my ongoing animation and pipeline skills (like 2D character animation, acting/lip-sync, and post-production tools), I focus on collaborating with teams to translate scripts and creative direction into polished visuals that match the story’s emotional tone.
