About me

I am a stop-motion filmmaker and animator. My graduation film Oxide, a short stop-motion film about two creatures meeting at an abandoned bus stop, was awarded a VAF Wildcard in 2023. I am currently working on the script for my wildcard film and am involved as a stop-motion animator in the Ensor-winning series Meneer Papier, under the supervision of Ben Tesseur and Steven De Beul. Additionally, I am responsible for part of the communication and public outreasch for Kortfilm.be, an online film magazine and VOD platform, where I have recently become part of the core editorial team."
