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:

2008-May-26: Some precious video rarities

God bless YouTube and the kind people who upload those things. =)

Via Animated News, I came across three video rarities (which already got their place on my hard drive) which I share with you:

  1. Walt Disney, Ward Kimball, Frank Thomas (among other masters) in a video reenacting the brainstorming process for the Three Little Pigs:

  2. The Making of Pinocchio:

  3. The Making of Bambi (in two parts):


It is so inspiring to watch masters like Ward Kimball, Ollie Johnston and Frank Thomas talking about their challenges and discoveries made while making those masterpieces. =)
