My name is Lisa Vertudaches and my pronouns are she/her. I am based in Adelaide, South Australia. The Adelaide Plains are the traditional lands of the Kaurna people, stretching from Port Broughton down to Cape Jervis.
I graduated from the University of South Australia in 2013 with a Masters in Visual Communication. I got my start working in animation creating eCards for Hallmark and working on music videos with my friends.
While a lot of my work is made with web in mind, I've also worked on projects for print and screen. I've directed four animated documentaries with TED Education and collaborated on projects with Warner Bros and Nickelodeon. While I specialise in illustration and animation for the commercial arts scene, I'm open to all kinds of projects and opportunities.

I work in my home office with my partner James and my two cats, Cherry and Ruby. James is a narrative designer/editor/writer, with his first book launching this year! check it out.
James and I love opportunities to collaborate, and have done so a few times now. If you have a script that needs a bit of a boost, or an idea that needs words and images, we'd love to help you out.

In 2018 I was invited to speak at Nodefest in Melbourne. I'm so thankful to Kim and James for asking me to be a part of things! As demonstrated in the video, I'm a passionate, but anxious speaker. I know it's not unusual to have a fear of talking in front of folks, but I do find I have a very hard time with public speaking.
If you don't mind a bit of chaotic energy and are prepared to instil me with confidence and provide a hand to hold (or crush) along the way, then I'm happy to chat about appearing as a speaker at your event!
