November (Dutch)
It is this time of the year again. Every autumn I am reminded of a poem called ‘November’ by Dutch Poet J.C. Bloem. This year I decided to create an animation based on a sculpture of his face and the sound bytes. I am having fun.
Bulldog Reading Dylan Thomas (remake)
Some time ago the original bulldog reading poetry that I posted in 2007 on YouTube reached over 30K views. Not really spectacular if you consider the fact that it took 10 years to get there. Still the clip is very dear to me, because it was my second animation. Celebrating the clip’s 10th Anniversary I decided to do a remake based [...]
In the Studio (1)
My partner Eveline is a real Paparazzi when it comes to documenting my work in the small studio at Nieuwmarkt 221. This raw clip is about two of my favorite models: Tess and Lena. In general it is a good setup if you have two people coming over to be photographed in the same time slot. It is a lot better than the situation where a model [...]
The Horror Doll

Going to this site would make a person believe that love is a state of mind that can be bought [...]
WAM – Models having fun
WAM as you may know or may not know stands for Wet and Messy. It is fetish, actually and it can be experienced with all sorts of fluids. In this particular case it is yogurt. I have done quite a few yogurt shoots. It is simple. We buy 12 liters of yogurt and put it on the heating for a while. Then we poor it over the models or have them [...]
Shooting fish in a barrel
To me as a photographer who likes to direct a photograph it is almost awkward to photograph a highly professional model like Alicia. It feels like shooting fish in barrel. Every pose she strikes is perfect. There is nothing to do for me but pushing my camera button and worrying if the flashes can keep up with the pace. The results were [...]
Burning House by Bára Queenbee and Rowan du Châtenier
On my previous site I had no category for film & animation, so I will be posting some older clips in the coming weeks. This particular clip features Bára Queenbee and Rowan du Châtenier. It was my first music clip. I had to keep it simple because most of efforts were consumed getting the right sound. I remember standing there with a [...]
