My name is Kimberly Mills! I have worked as a Story Artist for 10 years in animation, in both TV, Feature, and Video games at studios like Dreamworks, Netflix, and Nickelodeon. For the past 7 years I’ve been an Episodic Director on Big Nate, Shimmer and Shine, Trash Truck, and more at places like Netflix, Nickelodeon, and Disney. I’ve got a knack for Comedy and Drama, but love to bend my skills to fit the needs of the story! You need some action, let me help you envision the shots and choreography you need! I’ve got a lot of experience in the editing room, voice directing, and helping problem solve in the writers room. Aside from my career I am also an avid DnD Player! I am currently DMing a space campaign that is like annihilation meets severance, and am playing a Bugbear Barbarian stuck as a prisoner with the other PCs in another campaign! Let’s get together, talk about what you want to create and how we can get you the visual boards you need to see it thru!!!
