Marília Mafé

Director, Creator, Storyboard Artist, and Illustrator with over 10 years of experience working with animation for film, TV, web, advertising, and games.In my current role at Split Studio, I directed and art-directed 52 episodes of Boomies; led the internal direction of Turma da Mônica Jovem – Incertezas; and directed the second season of TFT: Pequenas Aventuras. I also contributed to the storyboard supervision of WeeBoom, the art direction and layouts of Scarlet Defiance, and the development of several other projects.I’m currently developing my first original feature film, Tibungo, which was selected in two development grants. In this project, in addition to authorship, I’m responsible for the screenplay, full visual concept, and direction of the promotional teaser.I created the visual concept and art direction for Ashe Versus, helping it earn a Cannes Lions Award, and contributed concept art for other award-winning films such as Skindeep and Impossible Journey.I have experience directing feature films, shorts, and series, developing a unique and cohesive creative vision and ensuring high-quality execution across all stages of production.My multidisciplinary background — combining experience in writing, art, storyboarding, animation, and directing — together with my strong communication skills, allows me to handle projects with diverse challenges: from smaller teams, where I take on multiple roles and provide strategic creative input to enhance quality within tight limitations, to larger productions, which require organization, team management, and collaboration with major clients.
