Long Version of my bio (in 3rd person) for Advanced Readers
Maddie is an Independent Filmmaker/Multimedia Artist/Writer/Animation Mercenary based in LA.
She grew up in Chicago, a strange solitary child, whose favorite hobby was pausing the tv so she could copy individual frames from a worn out VHS of the Garfield cartoon. From a young age she was also singularly fixated on the "evil" step-mom from the movie "Cinderella Story" with Hilary Duff. Imagine her delight to find that Jennifer Coolidge has a rich and varied filmography. She continues to be enraptured by her, and other cultural icons of her ilk- the girls, the gays, the camp, the vamp and a specific brand of the weirdo misfit feminine. She fully intends to spend her life serving this under-served demographic a heaping helping of mildly ugly animation.
She now spends the majority of her time in her Office/Garage/Sweat-Shack in LA- and she's still drawing individual frames of animation. Only now, she doesn't need any reference. Well, maybe a little reference. Her writing comes from personal experience, trying to spin the misadventures forged by her and her sisterhood of co-dependent weirdo baddies into something that can either resonate with someone, or make them laugh, or both.
Her mother would describe her comedic stylings as such:
"Maddie always takes it one step too far..."
Her favorite letterbox review of her work reads as such:
"This isn't very nice to look at, which is likely deliebrate and an agent of the free-nature and whirling discomfort of it all." -Theresa
She thinks that pretty much sums it all up.
