Animator and director Julia Tortolani has joined Wild Brain’s creative roster of commercial directors. She joins the company from Radical Media in New York City where she directed commercials for Coca-Cola, Microsoft, Ford and Hardee’s. Her longer format animation work includes a 55-minute animated program installed with a synchronized light show at Universal Studio’s Marvel Mania Theme Restaurant in Hollywood. Regarding her move to Wild Brain, Tortolani said, “I’m really excited about the opportunities at Wild Brain. I’ve always tried to push the limits of animation as far as a client will allow, which often leads to quite original-looking designs and the invention of new techniques.”
