Hi, my name is Manu Javelle, i'm a french illustrator and animator based in Toulouse, France. After graduating from Supinfocom Arles back in 2007, I moved to London and I spent a couple of years working on a few commercial jobs. I then had the chance to join the creative team behind "The Amazing World of Gumball", an animated television series created for Cartoon Network. I was hired as a Props and Graphics designer on the show. I spent about 9 years on this incredible project, working in the London based studio for the first 2 seasons, and then working remotely from France for the last 4 seasons. The show went on to win 8 BAFTAS, 1 Emmy award, and is one of the most successful kids show in the world.
Since then I had the opportunity to work on several projects, such as Cartoon Network series "Elliott From Earth" and "The Heroic Quest of The Valiant Prince Ivandoe". I also had the chance to work on Locksmith Animation Studio's first feature film,"Ron's Gone Wrong", a successful animated science fiction comedy, produced by the 20th Century Studios. And more recently I was hired by Xilam Studio Paris, to work on the upcoming Disney+ comedy show "The Doomies".
I'm a very dedicated team member but can also work just as reliably by myself remotely. Im very eager to experiment with style and techniques and always ready to take on new challenges.
