I went back to Golden Wolf to work on this spot for Target as part of their campaign around Target's collaboration with DC.

It was a great team of talented animators, I was given the scenes of the Super Mum landing outside Target's store and then standing up to reveal the superheroes behind her. Also Wonder Woman throwing her lasso and grabbing the products as well as some secondary characters.

When Golden Wolf asked me back to work on this spot for Ray Ban I did not hesitate. 

I was very thrilled to animate a human figure, to study and plan her movements under water.

Also I felt very fortunate to animate an illustration created by james Jean.

This is the first commercial for Holland and Barret The Good life campaign, the characters I loved the most animating were the rabbits leapfrogging and the hedgehog on the scooter. 

I worked at Tandem Films animating 6 idents for Rennie tablets. Each animator had to animate one ident,  this is mine Mr. Tummy and his friend the glutton reindeer.

I loved working in the Tandem studio under the umbrellas with the lights coming through the skylights.

Directed by Jeroen jaspaert, senior animators Tim Dillnutt, Ted and myself, with great help from Seti Erfan, Hanna lauwalker and Manav Dihr and Rick Blank as producer.

I had the opportunity to work at Weareseventeen on these modern idents for Kiss TV.

It is always interesting when you combine 2D and 3D animation. I animated all of the 2D elements for this amazing idents.
