Adrien Perret

Animator / Storyboard Artist

About Me

My name is Adrien, I'm a 25 year old French 2D animator and storyboard artist who studied at the EMCA. I'm a huge fan of all sorts of animated media, mainly drama and comedy, and my love for seals knows no bounds.I'm currently looking for work as a storyboard revisionist/artist and animator!

Storyboard / Animation

My thesis film, "Phoque Cancan", featuring seals, mitosis, pastel colours, and the power of anime. It was selected by the Stuttgart Festival of Animated Film for the Trickstar Nature Award and featured in the Osnabrück Filmest!

A commissioned animation of a testimony for the LGBT charity The Future Perfect Project I did in 2021!
I was provided with the audio recording of the testimony of Nestie, a disabled nonbinary person, and was given total freedom on how to storyboard and animate it.

An animated version of the poem "Les Haies", by François Morel I did as a school exercise.

A short test animation for my side project "So Carry Her Away", a story about a 50-something burned out office woman being transported to a human-free post-apocalyptic future.

The first part of a rough animatic I did of some kind of abridged version of "So Carry Her Away".

A storyboard of an intro for "So Carry Her Away".

Character Art

When I'm not animating, I'm always doodling characters, either for fun or to make comics with them!
