Monira Kamal
Professional Animator & Filmmaker
Films are my passion, for as long as I can think. And I love to help others with bringing their ideas to life and making them visible. No matter if it’s about creating a recording of a memorable event or promoting heart projects: My aim in this process is to find a projects very own details and highlight it’s special features to create inspiring films that will long be remembered.
My professional range of work is diversified and includes corporate and explainer film, music video, long and short film production, theater and event production, 360°, games and more. I have developed a special interest and a feeling for mixing 2D and live action material.
A personal concern of mine is supporting the German animation film industry. Since 2017 I’m engaged in organizing the “Festival of Animation Berlin” as an active partner with my knowledge and media capabilities in the areas of marketing and social media. My own animated short films are shown and awarded on film festivals around the globe.
Vita
I was born and raised in Berlin. After studying media design for two years, I studied animation at the Film University Babelsberg and graduated with a degree in animation in 2014. Since then, I have been working as a freelancer on a wide variety of productions in the fields of animation, videography and film design. This includes services in the mentioned areas as well as the independent conception and production of film projects of various kinds.
