Motion Joy

Here’s a collection of short animations in which experimenting and having fun were the most important. Most of these entries were in collaboration with some very talented illustrators and fellow motion designers.

Animation Tournament – Justin Buisson

Fellow motion designer Justin Buisson reached out to me, asking if I could animate an illustration in one day; challenge accepted! Turned out it was for an animation tournament on his YouTube channel, which country could animate this illustration best.

Monday’s Challenge – Summer

In the midst of a heatwave in The Netherlands, I remotely collaborated with the talented Stina Wahlén to create this snappy piece of motion, with the then very appropriate theme ‘summer’. Stina did a great job of realising the visual style, while I did the animation and sound design.

Monday’s Challenge – Medieval

Together with the creative illustrator / motion designer Anna Moessnang , we created this comical knight on his chess horse under the theme ‘Medieval’. Anna was the creative brain behind the visual style, and I did the motion magic to bring Anna’s illustrations to life.

Monday’s Challenge – Hula Hoop

For my first Monday’s Challenge entry, I wanted to discover new techniques and styles. For this piece, I combined hand-drawn animation with 3D-animation. It led to this happy woman, swinging the donut around her hips.
