ANGELA GIGICA - LONDON BASED FREELANCE MOTION DESIGNER / ILLUSTRATOR / ANIMATOR
A Fox on a Box is Angela Gigica. That's me.
Made in Romania, based in London, I am an independent motion designer and animator with over 14 years of both full-time and freelance work experience.
I help brands and organisations communicate and tell their stories in a more authentic way, with clarity and in a visually engaging manner. These stories can take the shape of online promo videos, including character animations, broadcast content, adverts, branded elements for live events as well as corporate comms.
A wide range of skills allow me to take on a project from concept stage through to developing style-boards to storyboarding & illustrating the visual journey and right through to implementation phases and delivery.
I’ve been very fortunate to work with some amazingly talented people in a variety of environments in the UK and abroad: from large advertising agencies to production houses, broadcasters, boutique design studios and even architectural firms.

The film premiered in the UK at the BFI London Film Festival 2019.
