Isabela Dos Santos

Isabela makes critters out of stationery material, eats what some might say too many gummy bears, and creates animations. She began animating in 2009, teaching herself the art form in her spare time while still a high school student, entering and winning several online film and animation contests in 2010. In 2011 she received a Silver Award in Cinematic Arts from NFAA’s YoungArts program, a National Gold Medal from the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards, and was ultimately named a U.S. Presidential Scholar in the Arts.
Recently, she has been collaborating with the wonderful choreographer Camille A. Brown for Ms. Brown’s new work, “Mr. TOL E. RAncE,” which is set to premiere in its entirety in 2012/2013. Isabela also continues to create animations for YoungArts events and is developing art and designs for new L.A.-based band, Maddie and the Bad Hats.
Isabela was born in Brazil but has been living in South Florida since 2000. As of Fall 2011, Isabela is studying Experimental Animation at the California Institute of the Arts (CalArts).
Her work has been featured in several places and events:
Smithsonian American Art Museum
Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts
Affirmation Arts Gallery
Baryshnikov Arts Center
Stephen J. Ross Theater at Warner Bros. Studios
The New World Symphony Center
A Town Called Panic DVD special features
Kate Nash official website and YouTube page
National Film Festival for the Talented Youth (NFFTY)
2011 Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival
The Joyce Theater
Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston
She hopes you enjoy her animations and keep her posted on where to find the best gummy bears.
