Smids Animation Studios

Meet Esther, one of the creative minds at SMIDS who helps bring our animated worlds to life. 🎨✨ As a props and background artist, her day involves reviewing scenes and designing the environments and objects that make each story feel real and alive. She’s especially proud of contributing to Keko Africa, where her work helps showcase African culture through vibrant and engaging settings for kids. Esther encourages anyone interested in this path to observe the world around them and keep practicing drawing environments. And if she could be any cartoon character, she’d choose Elsa from Frozen—because, like Elsa, she loves turning imagination into something beautiful. ❄️🎬
