Trea Bailey is a freelance character designer, visual development artist, and animator based in Franklin, TN. He led character design on the 2025 MIFA (Annecy)-nominated and Clio Award–winning Magic: The Gathering – Bloomburrow cinematic and served as a visual development artist on Brazen Games' Green Ember: Helmer in the Dragon Tomb and Bentkey's Chip Chilla. Past projects include Warner Bros.’ Batwheels, Space Jam: A New Legacy, and Disney's Disenchanted. Trea strives to create characters that tell their stories without a word— weaving their personality, past, present, and future into every detail. When he’s not sketching, he’s often journaling in a café or exploring new neighborhoods with his pup.
