My name is Ade ‘Adzie’ Mayr. I’ve been a motion graphics designer for over 3 years, with an extensive background as a 2D animator and digital artist.

​

I’ve been drawing for as long as I can remember — starting out with little ‘doodles’ and comics I shared with friends and family. This eventually led me to creating animations in whatever program I could find at the time like Studio Flipnote on my Nintendo DSi and later MS Paint & Windows Movie Maker. I eventually discovered Adobe Animate (Flash) and shared animations on YouTube and Tumblr. While most of these creations have been lost to time, I still really enjoyed this part of my creative journey.

.

This creative output I harnessed in my spare time slowly pushed me to pursue art & animation academically, starting with Fine Art & Media Studies at A Level. After developing my style & skills, I made my way to Norwich University of the Arts. I achieved a First-Class degree in Animation & a Vice-Chancellor Commendation for my team’s collective, harmonious effort towards our collaborative film ‘Highway Hotel’.

 

On the road to graduating, I created my brand ‘imakedoodleslol’, and pursued creating digital art & animations for a growing audience in various online fandoms. I also opened up art commissions which ranged from profile pictures, social media banners & personalised gifts. I drew over 60 commissions for folks worldwide. This whole experience has been really impactful to me as a queer artist, often making art for other queer individuals & communities!


While settling into a part time job at Sainsbury’s, I continued to build my portfolio. With this came animation opportunities like promoting a children’s book, creating a music video and even working closely with one of my favourite YouTubers. In 2021, I quickly familiarised myself with Adobe After Effects & Illustrator in order to become a Motion Graphics Animator & Designer at an independent creative agency called Five by Five. I utilised my past experience in Animate, Photoshop & Premier Pro into finessing the skills required to master motion graphics. During this job, I created many adverts for both TV and social media, and in my second year became the lead animator on content for our clients at B&Q. I handled all aspects of pre-to-post-production so I’m highly familiar with creating concepts, storyboarding, editing footage, animating text & vector assets, exporting, and quality assessing projects. I also have experience localising videos for clients like Epic Games and CooperVision. Overall, I’m very proud to say my creative output was highly praised during my time there.

​​

Since July 2024, I’ve been building myself up as a freelancer again, now with a broader skill set in video editing, animation and working with creative agencies.

​

I’m excited to see where this journey will take me next. I am open to all work, freelance or contracted - please reach out to imakedoodleslol@gmail.com
