Elizabeth Fijalkowski - illustrator, animator, writer & director
I’m a creative generalist from the UK with a skillset spanning illustration, animation direction, design, and visual storytelling. For 5 years I have experience freelancing for a wide range of clients such as branding design studios, educational channels, and charities, on projects that have involved everything from storyboarding and motion graphics to illustration and graphic design.
Since graduating Norwich University of the Arts in 2019 with a first class honours in animation, my short films have screened at festivals across the country, including winning an RTS East Student Award in 2020. My most recent horror-themed animated short Lepidoptera premiered at Paracinema Film Festival in 2023. 
Currently, I’m working on designing handmade products for my Etsy shop, as well as writing and illustrating my own original webcomic, The Flying Saucer Chronicles.
