Ngagne Demba DIAW

Hi, I’m Ngagne Demba DIAW — a visual storyteller with 5 years of experience across animation, gaming, and advertising. I’ve worked as a freelance storyboard artist on a variety of projects, including the animated feature film Naya and the Golden Dolphin, where I helped shape narrative flow and visual composition from script to screen. Alongside that, I served as an art director in a game studio for several years, overseeing character design, environment art, and visual development to ensure stylistic cohesion and strong storytelling in gameplay.
My background in the African advertising industry also gave me the chance to co-direct and storyboard commercials under tight creative deadlines — sharpening my ability to translate ideas into clear, compelling visuals. In addition to storyboarding, I can step in for 2D animation and character design tasks when needed. I bring a flexible, collaborative approach and a strong sense of narrative rhythm, whether in pre-production or production. I’m passionate about creating visually rich stories, and I’m excited to bring that energy and experience to your team.
