Biography
Hi, My name is Ella, and I'm an Animation Director & 2D Animator based in Tel Aviv.
I Graduated from "Bezalel Academy of arts" in 2018. I'm working in the animation industry since 2016. When I'm not animating you can find me chasing Robins with a camera. I have a keen eye for small human gestures, but at the same time really excited animating action scenes and vfx. Any kind of movement is a chance for exploration (A bonus if it's an animal)!
I'm always on the search for new adventures and projects, may it be a feature film or a tv series. I'm also on the start of a journey to creating a new animation series for kids about a clumsy fox and a worried crow. https://www.ellabenyacov.com/ Hope to meet and work on awesome projects together. Cheers!
