Hello, and welcome!

My name is Cáithlin Mulligan and I am an Irish animator and visual artist with a strong interest in storytelling, illustration, and 2D animation.

I studied Animation at Ballyfermot College of Further Education, where I completed a three-year programme and graduated with an HND in Animation. I then went on to Ulster University, where I received my Bachelor’s degree.

I have a passion for creativity across multiple mediums, and my work often combines strong visual design with character-driven storytelling.

My animation portfolio is divided into three sections:

Away With the Fairies is my student short film. I was responsible for the full creative process, including story development, concept art, background design, and animation. The film features voice performances by Chris O’Dowd and Ardal O’Hanlon.

Showreel showcases a selection of my 2D animation work, created using Toon Boom Harmony and After Effects.

Background Art focuses on my 2D background illustrations, produced using Photoshop and traditional layout paper.

I am always interested in new creative opportunities, collaborations, and projects.
