Short experimental CG animation.
Some fat jelly boys are lighting up a huge slide, we'll discover soon it's part of an experimental art instatllation.
concept, creative and art direction / animation directors: Nicolas Lesaffre/Nikopicto & Damien ferrie.
Mr Kaplin and One Small Pixel collaborated on a commission by the International Energy Agency to create a piece about their Technology Collaboration Programmes.
The brief was to capture the challenges currently faced by the energy industry and highlight the importance of cooperation between global organisations, agencies and governments in moving forward quickly to meet these important issues head on.
Our creative approach was to use particles to drive the piece to create an organic and flexible visual structure that could represent the various agencies and organisations, allowing new objects and interesting idea combinations to be created and formed when these particles came together.
A short abstract movie dealing with nature and maritime creatures, metamorphosis and transformation – it connects art and science. Strong emphasis on sound, related to the idea of visual music.
The Style is soft but clean, focussing on black & white.
I studied media design at University of Applied Sciences in Mainz and this is my diploma thesis – it´s not the official musicvideo.

Nokta . (Dot .) is an abstract short film project which is an improvisation of organic pieces and themes like power, control and luck. Using low-budget equipment and with the combination of actual camera shooting, 2d and 3d animation techniques, the film alters the reality and physics of the real world with the help of the liquid and dynamic simulations’ impact.
Even though the film is not produced according to the base of Amos Funkenstein’s text on harmony, but the text is a convenient statement for the stylistic and representational behaviour of the film.
'I see some correspondence between the foundation of universal harmony on elliptical orbit and the predilection for the elliptic forms in Baroque architecture. In both cases harmony is still defined as unity within multiplicity, but it ceased to be static, namely, harmony expressed in one ideal geometrical form, and became so to speak dynamic. What was previously regarded as the deviation from the ideal form, was comprehended for the first time as an integral part of the form, or form of forms, which are capable of endless transitions one into another.
