Visual Development for a hypothetical Alfred J Kwak remake
The following two works were made as part of a collaboration between Submarine and St. Joost/MIVC for the program of
Project Soho. Project Soho is a 10-week program that offers students of St .Joost's Master Animation program hands-on experience with working in the context of a studio setting and dealing with real clients. As part of the Soho-Submarine collaboration, we worked on character designs and environment explorations for a hypothetical remake of
Alfred Jodocus Kwak starring the next generation of the Kwak family.

Personal Project: Sporty Animals
A personal project I started in 2021 combining anthropormphic animated animals and a sport.
The following concept work is for a bouldering goat. I wanted the boulderhall to echo the aesthetic of the alps. I ended up going with one that had a cheesier look to it, as I prefered that as a story element.
Process
As the end product was an animation, I also did storyboards
whilest figuring out the exact look and angles of the bouldering hall.
