Kadaver

This year my graduation film "Kadaver", from 2007 played in my former school's gallery "BLAAK 10" during the IFFR (International filmfestival Rotterdam). Hadn't seen it in a while, and the fact that i had to rush so much of the animation due to time constraints still hurts when i see it.. (who on earth starts working a fulltime job in a different city while still having to complete a 3d graduationfilm??
I did..) But i'm still pretty satisfied with the music and the overall atmosphere.

The Dreamers

My main project at the moment is with a company called Hanazuki. Check them out, they’re amazing. Co-owner and creative mastermind Niko Stumpo created a range of wonderful 2d characters and it’s my job to turn them into full fledged 3d characters. The current characters, called “The Dreamers” are now actually being made into a vinyl toy based on my 3d figure, how cool is that!:) Samples should arrive within a few weeks.. At the moment I’m also making the Dreamers package in 3d, and experimenting with assorted accessories. Here are some testframes, can't wait to show the actual toy:)


Introducing

Inspired by a few of my artistic online friends and inspirations I decided to create a workblog, as opposed to creating and maintaining an actual portfoliowebsite.

For me this feels so much more spontaneous, and allows me to put a focus on tinier projects

that wouldn't necessarily have a place on a “official” website.

This blog is a place for the projects I actually enjoy immensely

and are the reason I started doing this 3d stuff in the first place.

Like designs for things/toys/films that might or might not ever be realised and various musical outbursts.

So feel free to follow me or bother me with things you think I should see. :)
