BFA-Stop Motion

Bonnie L. Franklin

My name is Bonnie Franklin and I love stop motion animation! In December 2020, I will graduate from the Academy of Art University with a BFA degree in Animation and Visual Effects (emphasis in Stop Motion Animation). I also have a BA degree in English Literature (emphasis in Fiction Writing) and a MBA degree. I bond with artists and business professionals. I’ve spent the past 20 years working in the Entertainment industry at almost every major studio, supporting the business side of productions. My career’s turning point came In 2016, when I helped studio executives bring The Angry Birds Movie to the big screen. I am excited to see Stop Motion Animation reach new heights of creativity, especially when it is combined with CGI. I’ve trained to work well in both worlds. I’m skilled in puppet making and animation, set design and fabrication, 3D modeling and animation, Sculpting, and 3D printing. Bringing two worlds together is what I do best.
