About Robyn:

Robyn Wisker-Stilling is an up-and-coming Animator and Director. She recently completed her BA in Animation at MDX in 2024 and is beginning her journey as a freelance 2D Animator.

Robyn's pitch for Miss Odd won the Phil Davies Award 2024. Her graduation film has had the opportunity to be professionally mixed and mastered by the postproduction sound company Fonic which enhances Robyn's vision of sound design to another level. 

Miss Odd has had a lot of success on the festival circuit so far, selected for many festivals including London International Animation Festival, the BFI Future Film Festival, and won some categories including 'Best Animation' at Together Disability Film Festival and 'Best Neurodiversity Narrative' at Wine Dark Short Film Festival.
