Erika De Nicola

Hi there!
I'm an Italian director and art director with over 16 years of experience in the animation industry, currently based in Milan.
I’m passionate about storytelling in all its forms, exploring different styles and techniques, and constantly growing both as an artist and as a team leader.

 

Throughout my career, I’ve contributed to several animated series, including Tear Along the Dotted Line, This World Can’t Tear Me Down and My Two Cents (Zerocalcare series for Netflix), as well as project development and music videos for international artists such as Mika and thasup.

​

In 2025, I co-founded Talea, an independent creative duo, with Simona Calà, where we develop animated projects through a shared creative vision.

​

I believe the best ideas grow through dialogue, trust and genuine collaboration. I care deeply about creating an environment where people can experiment, contribute and grow together. While I see animation as a collaborative process built on equal contributors, I also believe that taking full responsibility for my role is essential to helping every project reach its full potential.

 

My approach combines artistic vision with clear communication, empathy and a strong sense of responsibility, always balancing creativity with the needs of the project.
