Eleanor Evans and Giovanni Aguilar met while studying a master of stop motion animation in Barcelona. They quickly became friends and eventually fell in love. When they graduated Eleanor and Giovanni decided to make a life together and work towards building their own Animation Studio in Australia.
Eleanor Evans was born in Australia and studied visual arts at the Australian National University in Canberra. While her classes focused on contemporary digital art practices she found that all her works had something in common, they all incorporated stop motion animation and physical video effects. After realizing her subconscious was trying to tell her something she focused all her attention on Stop Motion exhibiting stop motion installation art in galleries in Canberra and Sydney.
