RESUME
monicatomova@yahoo.com
I have almost 30 years of experience in various aspects of the animation industry from TV Commercials, Animation shorts, Prime Time TV series, Junior TV series to feature films in the USA and Europe. I had the great opportunity to work as an Animator, Clean up artist, In-betweens, Prop Designer, Storyboard Artist, Revisionist and as a Director in the last years. My love for drawing and cinema led me to the only career that would make me smile thinking “Tomorrow is Monday!”
