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:

2009-May-28: I would watch this cartoon

If only judging it by the title sequence. :)

The Amazing Adventures of Kid Cole & Klay from Stephane coedel on Vimeo.

This opening was directed by Stephane Coedel for a non-produced Cartoon Network pilot called The Amazing Adventures of Kid Cole and Klay. I found it very cool the way they produced it: only with Photoshop, Illustrator and After Effects they achieved a very nice looking 50s style.

Sad it wasn't produced. At least they seemed to have had a pretty good time doing it. :)
