Recent animations for KLM’s Real Deal Days.
We created animated photo sequences designed to feel like pages from a travel diary or photo album. We also brought existing African patterns to life through movement and cut-out techniques, adding dynamic visual layers that complement the journey narrative.

Make politics less dull. Speak to the new generation of voters through inspiring European stories. That was the task the European Youth Card Association gave us leading up to the 2024 elections.
It resulted in a four-video campaign highlighting the importance of collectivity.
Here, we reimagine the stale idea of voting through an animation with voice-over to remind us of what the union has achieved—and why it must keep going. An animation that renders voting as fresh and tangible, without losing track of its weight and importance. Focused on motivating action with vibrant and thought-provoking visuals.
We’ll be posting the other videos soon. However, they’re already on our website for those who can’t wait!👀

Last October, we moved into our new studio.
We were looking for a space that reflected our desire to create, experiment, and develop new ideas. When we walked in for the first time and experienced the light pouring through, we knew we’d found it.
Feel free to join us in the sun for a chat and a coffee!☕️
Bringing motion to one of Amsterdam’s icons. An animated calendar for the Olympic Stadium, combining clean simplicity with visual nods to its defining features.
Cover and illustrations for ITIP - school for personal growth. We designed visuals that represent depth while simultaneously feeling light and tactile. A wonderful collaboration and our introduction to the world of print.
The Pool Productions Evolves into Also Studio: A New Chapter in Visual Storytelling
We are excited to announce the next step in our creative journey. The Pool Productions is evolving into Also Studio, led by co-founders Tom Lammerse and Bart Gijsbers. With this transformation, we embrace a broader vision while staying true to our roots in visual storytelling. And we couldn’t be prouder.
At Also Studio, we believe that stories come to life through the power of imagery. Our commitment to translating your narrative into a powerful visual experience remains at the core of what we do. But now, with a fresh name and an expanded creative scope, we’re more than just a video production company. We’ve grown into a comprehensive studio capable of crafting everything from dynamic films to captivating animations, engaging photography and visual design.
After two successful years as The Pool Productions, we’re shedding old skin—a step that reflects our growth and our ambition to do more.
We’d love to collaborate and explore how we can bring your message to life. Come visit us at our studio—we’re ready to create something extraordinary together.
