About
Creative, innovative, and an expert in audiovisual media, I have directed six animated short films, all of which were intense and ambitious projects. With an innate sense of drawing and narrative writing, my storytelling abilities are nothing short of unique in the world.
An old Lord is sleeping, drunk, he can barely see the strange animals playing music around him. But suddently, another character enters: a big dark wolf... Short film made with stop motion and with hand-crafted puppets : mix of classical wired armatures, papier maché, wood, fabrics, paint, etc. This is a film about alcohol, responsabilities, humour, and about not running away from reality.

A man reads a letter to his childhood girlfriend, telling of a day he thought he had lost it in the crowd. We follow a little boy who is looking for his friend, making his way through a host of strange and entertaining characters like dancers, windmen, skeletons in a band, and others just as absurd. The film is a short piece of folk art, hand-crafted with the participation of a local orchestra. He reminds us that even if life can be absurd and full of nonsense, some things matter, and for them we struggle; and love always wins.
