Sofia Maldonado Feliciano and Lydia Mastrangelo met freshman year of college when they were randomly assigned together as roommates. Their four years together included many all-nighters in the stop-motion studio and hours watching cartoons which inevitably led them to becoming great animators and even greater friends.
The animators felt frustrated post graduation since they were surrounded by so much talent but felt there was little opportunity and a lack of accessible spaces for animators. With their combined knowledge and passion- Malwink Studios was born.
Meet the Team
Creativity and craftsmanship flourishes within connected communities. Our studio equally values quality animation and the power of community, and works with local businesses to help our community thrive.
Our team celebrates being artists in Baltimore, and Malwink Studios values the community it is a part of. As a studio, we have the capability of taking on larger animation projects together.
