The Full Story

Hello!

I’m Maïlys Mï, a Freelance Illustrator & Motion Designer, based in beautiful Copenhagen, Denmark.

I specialise in various aspects of visual storytelling, and my primary goal is to collaborate with both studios and businesses to craft engaging and impactful designs that will effectively support your communication efforts.

My creative toolkit consists of the Adobe Creative Suite, more specifically Illustrator, Photoshop, After Effects, and Premiere Pro – as well as Procreate. I can assist with various or all stages of an animation’s creation, from crafting an original script, designing mood boards, character designs and storyboards, to motion designs and animation. I can also support you with social media content creation, printed communication materials, and more. 

If you’re interested in discussing a project, exploring creative ideas, or even just saying hello, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

I’d love to hear from you!
