Who is Cristina?

Cristina Vilches is a young animator and illustrator from Zaragoza, Spain.

Cristina begins with a Fine Art Degree at the smallest town in Spain – Teruel, but the north of the country draws her attention, so she soon moves to Pontevedra.

After finishing her studies in this city, she starts a period as an animator and illustrator AT the MA in Illustrated Book and Audiovisual Animation (University of Vigo- Pontevedra.) It is throughout the internship and experience at OQO FILMS, that she starts her film adventure.

Five years of hard work later, the results are mature works such as Souvenir, Fres-boi, A Terrific Adventure, Retweet and Raíz.

 This last year I have also been working as a Concept Artist in the Dr. Platypus and Ms. Wombat Studio, collaborating on various shortfilms, and a movie.
