An illustrating-in-photoshopupgrade.

Spidy

Something I quickly made on my job. Could be resulting in an animation, could be ending up in the garbage (where he might be even happier). 

He lost 2 legs doing business with some rough cockroaches.

'Op een haar'

Here's a flyer/poster design I made for a cabaret group called 'Intgeniep'.
If your interested in theater, here's the link http://intgeniep.com/. Go and check 'em out!

It was real fun to do and thanks for the tight deadline guys!

Painting again

Something I made as a gift. Ecoline & ink.

Relics 2012

Just like last year the good people of Relics Arts festival organisation asked me to make their campagne image.

We decided to stay with the owl figure (because their cool animals). Since my illustrator skills are booming I went for this style. Turned out pretty good. I'm already looking forward to next years design! 

So here's the call for artists. 

Campagne image and site will look like this too.

Well of the Moon

Here are some screenshots from a  project that's been keeping me up for two weeks.
3 weeks ago me and my girl were asked to make 'something' to accompany a musical fairytale-performance in Leuven. The fairytale is called 'Well of the Moon' and was to brought by Maarten Schuurmans. During the pauzes in the storytelling, an orchestra plays musical themes (written along with the fairytale). Very cool, but kinda boring for a 4 year old kid.
Long story short, me and my girlfriend decided to go for a Lotte Reiniger inspired live animation, played during the music. We struggeld through 2 heavy weeks of late night working with cutting and exercising a routine.
The play was done on 2 glass plates, this way we could suggest depth and had more freedom in animating/playing. For the light we used my old lightbox (for once the blinding light was useful).
We learned a lot about live streaming to beamers and videocables and, had a great result!
Everything was worth the effort!

We don't have live footage yet, but were going redo some scenes and record them this time to give you the main idea.

Dragonshirt

One of my colleages is leaving and as tradition wants we make a tshirt for those who leave. As a sort of reminder. Here's a design I made. He's going back to uni, to learn about green energy, thats why it says 'go and recycle'. Apart from that I just wanted to draw something cool.

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.

Lady Liberty

After my internship I got the chance to work for a payed assignment at 6+1. Thank you guys!
The idea was to remake the statue of liberty like the one that was used for 'Home Alone 2(or 3)'(doesn't really matter). Only the new version had to look surprized, since the prices of Brussels Airlines are so low to fly to NY.
It took a lot of my painting skills but in the end I'm pretty satisfied with the result! I learned a lot about my workflow and how clients think and switch their minds.

I always like it when people show how they came to the final result, so here's my evolution!
