Caitlin Vanarsdale Email & Phone Number

Hi! I'm Caitlin.I’m a Los Angeles based director, creator and story artist. I’ve been working in animation since roughly 2016, but long before that I was a freelance illustrator. Over the past 7 years I’ve worked in both television and feature animation, and I now have a deep understanding for the production processes and challenges of each. I have a passion for most parts of production, but my deepest love is for story, filmmaking and character. I could talk story forever, and I’m deeply committed to creating the most observed and nuanced characters on screen that I can, as well as fostering a community of artists around me that feels empowered to speak on their own lived experiences. My deepest belief is that a healthy working environment creates space for artists to bring their best selves to the table, which translates to more honest storytelling on screen. I think the world is ready to see complex characters who deal with deep issues and difficult philosophical questions, and there is a longing in the animation community to bring those characters to life. I'm so excited to see what comes out of this next generation of creators!
