Lecturing and consulting
I was the first traditional animator working in computer animation in the Netherlands way back in 1984, introducing CGI on Dutch television and I was involved in many innovative developments as motion control and motion capture in my design period for television.
Because of my pioneering CGI experience in the early eighties, I was asked as one of the first to teach CGI and media design at the Image and Media Technology department of the HKU way back in 1986. I did that for some 10 years for one day a week. More academies followed like: Minerva - Media Design dept | HKU - Design Technology dept | Stint Lukas Brussels - animation dept | Artez - animation dept. I was also guest lecturer at the Netherlands Film Academy (NFA), VFX department.
Currently I only do workshops on request. I am a scrip doctor and do coaching of final exam projects.
The NFA graduation documentary film ‘Waarom bleef je niet voor mij?’ won in 2021 a GOLDEN STUDENT OSCAR in Holywood and the GOLDEN LION at Cinekid for best documentary. I advised for the animation part and profided the motion control facility.
A couple of years I did an animation and photography summer workshop in the Spanish Pyrenees at La Colina.
I was asked for the animation commission board for the Netherlands Film Fund, the Flemish Film Fund and I was consultant for the Netherlands Institute of Animation Film.
I initiated the research and development project "Sonotrope" at the NFA. It involved a VR application that transforms choreography and movement into a musical sculpture. More here
Below some NFA propedeuse student results. The assignment was to make a style-frame of an imaginary film, inspired by Terry Gilliam, using miniature sets as backdrop.
