Throwback to when Dragon Frame insisted on automatically connecting to my phone and I accepted the challenge. Also admitting that this kind of nonsense is why I got into animation in the first place 😁 #stopmotion #clay #nonsense #morphing #character
Part 2. I’m not out of the woods yet. Some days I drown, some days I go up in flames. But today is my birthday and it’s the first time in many years that I feel like celebrating being alive. I am grateful to all my friends, old and new, who didn’t let me lose myself, who helped me remember who I am 🥰❤️🔥🐦🔥#claymation #stopmotion #humanmade #mentalhealth #healing
Last year was an extremely difficult one. I took maybe the hardest decision of my life, but I also saved myself in the process. What kept me sane was my art, even if I felt creatively depleted at times. Just coming to the studio and making clay come to life without an end purpose was both escaping reality and healing. And this last piece I finished in December kinda describes my year 😅 Here’s part one ! Straight ahead freestyling #claymation #stopmotion #metaphor #selfcare #divorce
My short film for children goes into the third festival year and will be screened at the @londonshortfilmfest on the 25.01 in the “Can You Imagine A World?” programme. How fitting, now when lots of us need to imagine a different world than the one we live in! #animatedfilm #characteranimation #shortfilm #filmfestival @interfilm_festivaldistribution
This is what I’ve been doing for the past two months or so 😌 28 illustrations for a book based on my short film for children “Tuu Tuu Til” - yeah, I know, pretty much the other way around 😅 The illustrations are going to accompany a poem that I wrote in English and German, it’s been translated to French and will be hopefully translated to Finnish soon. I’m clueless though about how to approach a publisher, so I’d be grateful for advice 🥹 #illustration #bookillustration #handdrawn #crayon #drawing #crayondrawing #process #drawingprocess #illustrationprocess
When you have shitloads to do but it’s more fun to help a friend with their animation homework 😁. #animation #stopmotion #clay #claymation #objectanimation #fakead #advertising #homework #design
It’s hard to celebrate one’s own small accomplishments when there’s so much torment in the world… But this one brought me great joy 🥰 My film on a poem written by myself in German was chosen by the kids in Berlin as their favourite. ❣️ Awesome voice: Jo Jung, awesome sound-design: Luis Schoeffend ❣️#shortfilm #award #filmfestival #animation #poetry #poetryfilm @interfilm_festivaldistribution
Can you believe I still don’t know where to place text on reels so that it can be read properly?! I’m doing a masterclass 😬 This Friday @animatricksfestival #claymation #masterclass #animationfestival #animationartist #stopmotion
