There's always an upside to loosing, in this case runner 7 won't have to carry the pressure of defending the title until next year, and obviously he'll be spending that 200 smack on some life quality-improving activity, well knowing that they're funny money and therefore his bad conscience is not triggered...so double life quality improvement!!

Wikipedia

2011-12-05T13:03:00.001+01:00

I use Wikipedia, on a daly basis! I love the easy acces to the vast amount of knowledge.
I've never felt like I hade any facts to contribute, so I gave them some money instead.

2011-10-13T10:56:00.002+02:00

these are some of my lastest moves from the brotherhood ( brand-of-brothers.com ) I've always taken great pleasure in fast results, here are some that I actually finished. Of cause there's no need to tell that these are all products of insanely complex thoughts, compressed into a minimum of simple drawings..!!

2011-08-23T09:44:00.000+02:00

Currently I don't have time to finish what I start on my dalie brainstorm, both of these themes (horse horn, and stilleben, which in danish spells out silent leg) gave me ideas for stories, I'll probably never get around to illustrate them, but if I happen to get enough time one day, and the stories seem to have retained their marrit to me, well then...then I guess I've got some concept to leap from...

this is the result of some quality time with my computer. I don't always have the patience that animation takes, so the experiment here is to get away with as much as possible.

Something Rotten

2011-01-30T03:02:00.000+01:00

this is Zombie John Maggot Mogensen, I made him for at t-shirt. Something rotten is a concept that two of my friends made up. Basically it builds on the famous Hamlet quote: There's somthing rotten in the state of Denmark. It plays on those words with Zombie-celebrities (from denmark) I thought it fitting to draw John Mogensen (folk musician) since his work often expresses that there is indeed something rotten in the state of denmark!!

this is my exam, for the second year at The
Animation Workshop. We a week to make a
scene involving the monkey the safe, and Norman :)
Personally I think my acting-choices are a bit off, and
it doesn't help that they were rushed to begin with. But
given a week you just can't use three days on reference.
