Are the pink babies a little too creepy ?

multigenerational living

For about 2 months i've been working on this very cute and fun little film - old school cut out animation! The two lucky architects, Sofie and Julie, won a competition to make a little film about their concept of "multigenerational living / housing" and I am lucky to be part of a small team helping to make it:) I have been creating the character designs and puppets, and now i'm animating. It's so much fun to get to animate your own designs!:) It's been a very educating experience to work in this medium - i'm looking so much forward to seeing the film finished! :D

Here are some photos from the animation desk:) 

(We are working with two layers)

The animation is shot in Dragonframe, and here you can see my fast (and pretty) animation notes on the screen:)

If you want, you can check out the production blog for the film HERE. (It's all in Danish)

one more donut lady

One more donut lady. It's really fun because they are fairly quick to draw and i dont have to figure out what kind of dress to draw and what kind of pattern the fabric should have and so on. So i just need to figure out the hair style (which is always the part i love to draw the most!), and enjoy being an adventurer in proportion-and-composition land. 

donut ladies

I am making this little series of undressed redhaired ladies with donuts. This project is the result of a compromise, and it has turned out to be quite fun actually! This first one is the only one i will show with the full drawing right now, the other ones are only parts of the drawings:)

Travel

For this week's Illustration Friday theme:)

pineapple.

this one i started a long time ago, but had a problem with the colours. But i finally fingured out what was wrong, and now i really like it! it's just a practice drawing.

"Du Velger Selv" - backgrounds

Recently the film i worked on while interning at Mikrofilm had it's premiere. I went to Oslo last week to see it, and it was so great to see it finished! Mainly i worked on the backgrounds - building the chairs, houses, trees, busses and so on in paper, which afterwards was photographed (not by me). Here are three stills from the film, and you can see more photos/backgrounds on my portfolio ! :)

plants

It's confusing working with two different screens, that dont share the same colour profile. Now i never know which screen to adjust the colours to. i drew this for the purpose of experimenting with various parts.

niece of biz

after seeing my drawing of Adora Levin, a kind lady asked me to draw her niece and nephew:)

this is the one of the niece. happy holidays ! 

Howling Wilderness

Mai Sydendal's midway film "Howling wilderness", at the danish film school, is a cut-out animated short (with cardboard and a glass plate-camera-setup). I did the character design of the two characters in the film, and did the pieces for the cardboard puppets.

it was very interesting to work on, and i've never done cut out puppets before. i am looking so much forward to seeing the film finished! exciting! unfortunately the midway films from the film school are super top secret, for some reason. 

poems

I've been looking through my files, and discovered a lot of unfinished stuff. This one is from my trip to Viborg 2 months ago - i was planning to do this kinda documentary montage series of the lovely things i did while i was there, but i only got to do this one. 

So here i am, hanging out with my sleeping buddy Papafish on a relaxing sunday morning plus reading some lovely poems written by Lola Baidel. 

information

I just started working on a new project this week, and it's a 2D animated short, directed by Dorte Bengtson and produced by Nice Ninja. It's called "Skyggedyret" and you can keep track of what's happening on the blog. juhu :D

irena's tvzine

a little while ago, irena freitas requested drawings for a school project, where she would collect drawings of fan art for a favourite tv show.  i thought that would be fun, so i applied!

Read the zine here and visit irena's cute drawings here.
i couldnt decide on which tv show is my favourite, but i thought that if had to go into space, and i could only bring one tv show, adventure time would probably be the one i would choose:)

BADRAIN

This is a musicvideo i worked on recently for Slash's song ''Bad rain''.
it's directed by Christian De Vita and i animated 3 shots.
