Korpus Grotesk
In the transmission of typeface through exposure onto the carrier medium of film and printing plate, inaccuracies and fuzziness are rendered discretely visible. The animation makes reference to this exposure technology, uses film as its transport medium and the light for the illustration, thus, in its very own way also stands as homage to the cinematographic reproduction technology.
My Name Is Boffer Bings
Some things are best kept secret and should stay hidden forever. A chalk animation based on Ambrose Bierce’s short story; a thriller telling the modernized version of a timeless tale of greed and obsession with dark humour, for a contemporary audience.

Rabbitland
More stupid than Teletubbies, more absurd than Sponge Bob, happier than Barbie – Brainless Rabbits represent the most perfect stage of evolution so far. They can be identified by a hole in the head where the brain should be located, by the intense pink colour and frantic eyes. Their intelligence does not interfere with anything because its quotient is the lowest ever measured. Rabbits are happy
