Happy New Year!
The French internet portal canalj put some of the animated Rudolf shorts online, part of the animation and production team of which I have been for almost a year now.
Here’s a little Christmas story we worked on earlier this year:
It’s in German and not dubbed, but enjoy anyway and Merry Christmas.
So for the last four weeks I’ve been working as an animator for a small studio in Cologne. Well, what much can I say? I’m working with old school friends, the place is quite cosy, I’m making OK progress and I get to produce TV animation on my first real job in the field. So in spite of a six-hour commute every day by train, the fact that German train drivers are still fighting their superiors and going on strike every other day and that I can’t move to Cologne before December and have to put up with the weather until then - I’m having a great little time!

Working for a cosy little, Cologne-based animation studio for the next two months. Unless I can find a room there soon, we’re talking up to six hours of commuting every day. (Please, dear train drivers of Germany, find some other ways of exerting pressure on your higher-ups than those annoying random strikes.
Discworld’s Sam Vimes, based on Pete Postlethwaite as series author Terry Pratchett intended.

And some animation ruffs (which don’t have anything to do with that studio’s project).
