Electric

A short animation for the belgian railways. Nowadays you can recharge your electric car at some railwaystation.
To bad we only get 6 seconds to explain things. Either way it's realy cool to see these clips playing live!

Vlamingen in de wereld

A while ago me and a friend, Isabelle Dubois, got contacted by Paradigma, a belgain television house. They asked us to make a small animation for 'Vlamingen in de werld', a department of the Flemish government which helps flemish people abroad.
Really nice people who give us a lot of space to 'play' and make something nice!

Here are some producionstills I made. The whole animation will be situated in a Belgian passport. Animation will be partially stop-motion, partially AFX.

I'm really enthousiastic about this one!

And here's the actual movie.

Motion Graphic Volontaires

So here's another project of 6+1. The volontiers in Brussels get in the picture. Some crazy superman-dressed-offocial ran around in a cabinet in Brussels. Quite funny! Here's the link

Either way, 6+1 asked me to make a quick intro/motion graphic and spend as less time needed on it. The result is simple but nice. Logo was made by on of the graphic artists. I broke it down and made ist look 3D-ish.

Booster Woningfonds/Fonds du Logement

I' m doing an internship at 6+1. An advertising agency in brussels. They're still small but the winds are blowing in a very good way, which makes the atmospere even nicer! .

Since they're still small, interns like me get more responsibility in campaigns. The folowing campaign was thought up by one of the creatives after a hard meeting with the client. He had no idea how the animation should look like. All he said was not to comicy and with a 'booster' feeling.
Animation department was got an open door and this is what we came up with. Eventually the site and poster got to look the same. Hooray!
Here it is!

Oh, and here's the link to the site:

Title & credits

Here are the title and credits renders. I decided to name my film 'La Gourmande'. 'The Gluton' in English, or 'De Gulzigaard' in Dutch, but in feminin then. Since the film is about gluttony and most french words immidiatly make you think of food. Pomme frites! Either way, it was nice to make something quick and creative again after months of looking at my storyboard en wrestling with sounds!

You got the stills, now it's time for the whole show. With sound! There you go, no problem. Enjoy!

Some Linetests!

I've began animating, finally. And here are some results! I kept the animations sober, hoping it will match the AFX animations. I started off with the Mermaid. Enjoy, I did! :)

Jack O'Lantern

A schoolproject that got a little out of control. It's the storyboard/animatic about the origin of Halloween. No sound, great colors! Figures are drawn in Illustrator, adjusted in photoshop and edited in premiere.It's designed for AFX animation.
