Just another storyboard for a school assignment:

Super Hugo

yet another birthday present for a friend of mine: 

A few weeks ago I was a guest tutor in "Peter Peterson Primary school" in Haren. A friend of mine had an intership there, and wanted to organise something for the "child's book" week. The subject of the week was "Superheroes", so I was teaching the kids how to draw superhero's and make superheroe's out of themselves. It was a lof of fun and I've learned alot. I must say those kids were very talented! And we all loved the results. :):

Working on my next animation. Below you'll find  part one of the storyboard and some character concept: 

Continuing with my hobby: making superheroes out of my friends:

Doodles

I was just making some doodles in my dummy and then I got inspired and thought it would be cool if can combine them all in Photoshop and make it look like wallpaper or a graffiti on the wall. Graffiti also inspires me, I think it's an underestimated form of surrealism, although this was made with pencils and fineliners.Some pages didn't make it to my final product,but maybe I can use them later. Enjoy:

Ruud van Emple Exhibiton

Hey guys!  

Today we visited Ruud van Empel's  exhibiton in Groningen Museum and I must say:I think I've just found another hero to add to my list. This guy is really amazing with Photoshop and Photography manipulation.He really brings a cinemtaic feel to his work! And man those colors, they just jump at you! Below, you can find some examples of his work. For more info check:

Birthday gift

Finally done with my birthday gift for my dad tomorrow. The guy is a chessplayer so why not put a chesspiece in there? ;):

BMX Masters 2011

Two moths ago, me, my stepdad and some friends went to "BMX Masters 2011"in Kologne Germany. Those guys really know what to do with their bikes, so I've decided to make a little 2-part compilation, showing their skills. The first part contains videofootage, taken by a friend, with his HD camcorder and the second one contains my footage. Both are edited by me. You can watch the results below Enjoy:

First Entry

Hey Guys,

How is it going. I've finally found some time for my first blog entry. So my (short)name is Zuli and I am 4th year Time Based Media /Media design student, looking for an internship. I love movies, motion graphics, dubstep, drum'n bass, Linkin Park and I'm still enjoying drawing. I've started drawing when I was 7, I think. Mostly using pencils and fineliners. Right now I'm using, Corel Painter, Photoshop and even Illustrator. Two years ago, I've discovered love for movies, animation and drawing storyboards and that's why I've chosen "Time Based Media" and not "Illusration". Also I've become kind of addicted for "After Effects. I'll be posting my media work soon".


What I'm gonna post below are some recent birthday artworks, I've made for my friends. I pictured them all like superheroes, with powers and equipment based on their characters, humour and their talents. And ofcourse I asked them what kind of powers do they like to have. Each of these were printed on a A2 paper, so it looked like a poster. Enjoy:
