Art Director & Producer
ABOUT ME

Writer, Art Director & Producer
​​My name is Yula Loven - I am an Art Director & Producer with Showrunning experience. My experience includes working for multiple Netflix productions such as Netflix (Nimona, Entergalactic) and many kids shows (Cocomelon, Morphle, Blippi, Lellobee City Farm and more).
​
In 2023, I was offered my first showrunning opportunity, managing a children’s series with a $1M development budget. Currently, I am developing my own adult animated 3D TV series, EVIL CUPID, while building EVOL Motions a boutique animation studio focused on stylized storytelling and independent animation development.
​
Alongside production, I also run the EVOL Animation Network, a global animation community that has grown to over 14,000 members worldwide. Through industry panels, mentorship programs, interviews with leading professionals, and production training, I focus on helping emerging artists better understand animation pipelines, portfolio expectations, and the realities of working within both traditional studios and indie productions.
Since launching my production training program in 2025, I have already helped over 100 students begin their journey into the animation industry.
​
​
I excel best at Creative Leadership roles (Creative Executive, Art Director, Creative Director) and love developing original IPs.

​
INDUSTRY JOURNALISM & NON-PROFIT WORK
In 2023, I have created a Discord server EVOL Animation Network with a goal to connect animation students with industry professionals. Today my Network has 14,000 members and continuosly growing.
