Marcita.com - About

Hello :)

I'm Márcia but people call me Marcita ˘◡˘
I'm a creative director, illustrator, and animator from São Paulo, Brazil, but I live in movement.

Unlike almost all art directors who found their passion because they liked to draw since they were kids, I, of course, enjoyed drawing and clay sculpting, but I found my journey when I was 13 years old and discovered punk rock.
At the time, I started creating fanzines using typewriters, photocopies, and collages. I didn't know I was indulging in the art of graphic design. My 'zines covered political and musical subjects, from feminism to reviewing poorly recorded cassette demo tapes of three-chord bands.
I was heavily influenced by cinema and 90s MTV animations, which brought me to where I am today.

I work internationally with governments, NGOs, not-for-profits, environmental and educational institutions, journalists, documentarists, creative studios, and brands globally.

CREATIVE STUDIO
I manage a tiny and efficient creative studio remotely. When you hire me, you also have other bright creatives working on your project.

DESIGN THINKING PROCESS
I start the projects by developing ideas with my clients, helping them to clarify the best way to communicate what they need through a range of image moods and storytelling styles.

WORKSHOP AND CLASSES
I give talks about my creative job, and I also conduct workshops. -> You can read about them here.

Talks about animation, career, life, and process

I spoke with the lovely people from Layer Lemonade about life,
direction, learning, and moving to another city :)

For the Frila podcast, I talked about my life as a freelancer.

For the Anchor Point podcast, we talk about the creation of an online community for
female animators and motion designers in Brazil called Garotas do Motion.

I was invited by my client IPAS.org to talk about the process of doing the animation Mina's Story which talks about abortion with pills.
