About Marina

Director of institutional animated films, I manage every project from start to finish — from script to delivery — to ensure your message is clear and impactful.

For over 12 years, I have been creating animated films for demanding brands like Décathlon, but also Guerlain and Dior — very different universes, which have in common the need for rigor, coherence, and a sense of visual storytelling.

What defines me: I take care of the entire creation chain. Writing, art direction, character design, animation, sound design, editing, and multi-format delivery — alone or with a team as needed. No loss of information between stakeholders, a coherent vision from beginning to end.

I adapt to all sectors and all budget constraints, with the same level of commitment. My office is in Paris, but I can travel anywhere in France for project launches.

Experience

    Creation of films for Guerlain

    February 2025 - April 2025 (2 months)
    Paris, France
    In collaboration with the agency US Paris, I co-directed two films for the annual convention (2024 and 2025) telling the story of Guerlain and its flagship creations. For these two films, I participated in the art direction, designed the storyboard and visuals, and then animated the films in a collage style.

    SPORTS
    January 2024 - February 2025 (1 year and 1 month)
    Paris, France
    I directed ten explanatory motion design films for Decathlon, intended for all its partners. These educational content addressed various topics such as the effects of the sun on the skin, nutrition, different types of eyeglass lenses, or sports recovery. Ranging from three to five minutes each, these films allowed me to manage the entire creation process: writing and storyboard, visual creation, art direction, motion design animation, and sound design. This experience allowed me to develop a clear and didactic approach, while maintaining a high level of graphic and narrative standards.
