About

I'm an Animation Professor at LUCA School of Arts, campus C-mine in Genk, Belgium. I teach at the Re:Anima Joint Master in Animation and I'm a senior researcher at the Genk Research Unit, in the 'Critical reflections of and through animation' cluster. My research interests include philosophy of Technics, power relations inscribed in and reinforced by technical objects, and decolonial perspectives in animation. Previously, I was an Animation Professor at Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG), in Brazil. MFA and PhD by the Graduate Program in Arts at EBA/UFMG. I'm also a free software advocate, animator, rigger and I also like to code. You can see some of my works and know a bit more about me at:

Old Blog

Yes, I had a blog. Haven't updated it since 2011. Anyway, if you need something from there I have kept backwards compatibility and you can read it below.

Planning

Saw at Olivier Ladeuix blog a post where he talked about two of his colleagues from Animation Mentor.

The work of one of them was noticed in an earlier post here on my blog, and it is really strong.

About the second fellow, Maciek Gliwa, I found it very interesting to see how detailed are his plannings before he gets in front of the computer.

Who visits CGTalk often will probably remember seeing his baseball clip on the Animation Mentor banners. It's not without a reason that he's got a pretty cool job! ;)
