Biography
My name is Milly Miljkovic. I'm an animation filmmaker and illustrator from the south of Switzerland.
During my studies at the Art School of Lugano (CSIA) I became passionate about geometric shapes and colors.
During my studies at the Art School of Lugano (CSIA) I became passionate about geometric shapes and colors.
That's why I chose to study architecture at Accademia di Architettura di Mendrisio and then animation and illustration at Scuola Internazionale di Comics and Event Horizon - School of digital art in Turin.
Once finished the University education, I decided to combine both disciplines and create my own imaginary world. I began my career as a freelance animator & illustrator and I started collaborating with:
RSI - Radiotelevisione della Svizzera Italiana, Locarno Film Festival, USI Università della Svizzera Italiana, SUPSI, The Guardian, AMKA Production, and many more...
Since last year, I started teaching animation and illustration at CSIA(Centro Scolastico per le industrie artistiche), and Creative Illustration at IFC (Istituto per la formazione continua).
Since four years I teach Production and Set Design at CISA (Conservatorio Internazionale di Scienze Audiovisive).
I hold seminars, workshops and laboratories with many different realities including: International Institute of Architecture, Human Rights Festival, Locarno Film Festival, Cinema and Images for Schools (Turin), and more..
I'm coordinating La Notte del cortometraggio Ticino (International KurzFilmTage Winterthur) and
Collettivo Illustrazione Ticino.
At the end of October 2024 I will start production on my personal short film Libella, produced by AMKA Productions and ULMI Films, and I will begin a Master's degree in Motion Design at LABASAD (Barcelona School of Art & Design).
