Tom Chertier is a French graphic designer, 2D animator and animated film director. He began drawing on his bedroom walls at an early age, and to avoid further material damage, his parents directed him to study applied arts. He soon realized that he wasn’t good enough in mathematics to be an object designer, not rigorous enough to be an architect and too dissipated to be a graphic artist, so he decided to take a Master’s degree in Animation Film Research at Toulouse. Passionate about narrative and minimalist graphic creation, in 2022 he found himself propelled into the role of author, not only to write a short film with jokes in it, but also to draw drawings for it, but not only.
