Coline Tomala

Character animation means creating emotion out of nothing, frame by frame. Coline practices it on some of the finest projects in French animated cinema.

Trained in drawing and animated film in Paris, she has animated on acclaimed, award-winning feature films: Zombillenium by Arthur de Pins and Alexis Ducord, The Prince’s Voyage by Jean-François Laguionie, and Arthur and the Children of the Round Table. A career rooted in the standards of auteur cinema, where every shot is crafted to serve the story and the character.

Working with Coline means learning animation from someone who earned her stripes on productions where the quality of the gesture and the accuracy of the acting come before everything else. She passes on the sense of movement, the reading of weight and intention, and the sensitivity that separates technically correct animation from animation that feels alive.
