Meta-Androcto’s Petunia

Thursday, December 17th, 2009

I just now saw Meta-androcto’s Petunia based material experiments. It’s nice to see how different a model it can be just with n alternate material. You can find the thread on Blenderartists.org.

Gallery Exhibit

Thursday, December 3rd, 2009

My work is exhibited at the Chiefs and Spirits gallery in the Hague. We made three very high resolution prints based on the short film Tidal, which was released earlier this year. The prints will also be shown at the Miljonair Fair in Amsterdam, the Affordable Art Fair in Brussels, and perhaps also the one in London. But you can always drop by the gallery to have a look!

Shiny Petunia spotted

Sunday, November 29th, 2009

I just now stumbled upon a nice mod someone made of Petunia over at the lumalab forum. Thanks Engys for showing what you did! It once again proves how cool it is to give away your models for free. He also did a little walkcycle you can find on the forum.

Project London in the spotlight

Saturday, November 28th, 2009

Jawbone.tv did a really nice interview with ‘the’ Ian Hubert. Project london is getting some nice attention on the web. Secretly I’m most excited about seeing an image of the Goose that I personally hadn’t seen before. I’m still very proud of that model!

Tidal in Chasse Cinema

Thursday, November 12th, 2009

Tidal will be shown in the Chasse Cinema theatre in Breda (Netherlands) as part of edition 30 of the Blindemuur project. The short will be one of a series of films that will be played continuously until December 9th.

I also released an "animatic" of the short to show you all a bit of the process of creating the short.

Tidal (for the bins) released!

Friday, October 23rd, 2009

I was finally able to finish and publish my short film Tidal! It was shown for the first time last friday night during the Blender Conference Animation festival. All the animation/rendering/editing/audio work was done in just two weeks. I could not have completed it without a little help from my friends (check the credits). Of course it’s also released under the Creative Commons Attribution license.

A workshop at the HHS

Tuesday, September 1st, 2009

I was invited to give a 4 day workshop at the ‘Haagse Hoge School‘. The group I taught consisted of 16 students who were just starting their games minor. We had an interesting, fun & productive week, both in Blender 3D and with paper & scissors!

48hr Film contest Richmond

Friday, July 17th, 2009

For the second year running I was invited by Hand Turkey Studios to join their 48hr Film Project Team. We entered in the Richmond 48hr Film Project competition. Unlike last year, we actually finished this time around. Mostly because the team was littered with some of the most talented Blender 3D artists in the world. It was a great honour simply to be asked to take part, and once again great fun!

Talking at Sideseen

Friday, May 15th, 2009

I’ve been asked to give a one hour talk about Blender 3D at the new Video Art & Electronic Music event Sideseen in Rotterdam on friday May the 15th. There are also people there form the SAE Institute talking about 3D animation. After the talks thereĀ are lots of DJ’s/VJ’s and what looks like heaps of fun. Perhaps even a drink or two.
