2D or not 2D ... that is the question
I come from architecture, did my studies on a technical univerity and worked at many archittecture offices. Getting more and more into graphics and archviz I started to realise the power of CG, encouraging me to create my own little creatures and bring them to life.
Seeing how much most architects struggle with their financial but also judicial situation in the building process I started to think to myself. "Hey, why fighting so hard and gaining so little, and not even beeing able to realise your creative ideas ..."
So I decided to go 100% graphics, toon and animation - a decision I have not regreted so far.
I lived in Brussels/Belgium the past two years, working on my first animated short "out of the box"
Now I am back in my hometown Salzburg/Austria earning my living with motion graphics, web, print, teaching After Effects and 3D, trying to put some effort and time into my next littel production "the Captain and the iceberg"
