Iliana Franklin
Writer, Director, Producer, Story Artist
Welcome to my website!
I am a veteran film and VFX professional with extensive industry experience in developing, directing and producing film, animation, VFX, architectural visualisations, interactive, advertising publishing and education.
I am also a co-director at Mediaframe Ltd with range of clients including Universal Studios, Star pictures, DHX Media, Microsoft Game Studios, Lionhead, Foster+Partners. I have a long list of credits including TMNT, Simpson, The Princess and the Pea, The Monkeys Castle, The Three Wise Men, The Tale of Despereaux.
Alongside my industry work, I am a Senior Lecturer in Art Direction and VFX at UAL, where I help shape the next generation of creative talent. I have also led and contributed to the design and validation of postgraduate programmes, including the MA in Storyboarding and Previsualisation, MA Art, part time courses at Escape Studios, and BA degree programmes in Game Animation and Digital Media at London Metropolitan University.
I specialise in bridging industry and education—bringing real-world practices into the classroom, and fresh creative thinking back into production. My work is driven by a passion for storytelling, innovation, and collaboration.
If you are looking to collaborate, develop a project, or bring a creative vision to life, I would love to hear from you.
