BÎORN

I have reached the third year of my animation education, the Bachelor film year. A hole year dedicated to making a film (well except for 3 weeks during this Christmas where we are going to animate on the Danish Films School animation directors projects). I am part of the team of 9 people that are making a viking story so far called BÎORN (meaning Bear). It is a project I am very happy for, and I will try to remember to post some of my stuff stuff on my blog.


Our story is very short about an old viking called Biorn. He wants to go to Valhalla before he dies of old age and the only way a viking can get to Valhalla is to die in worthy combat. So Biorn takes his sword and leaves home. In our story he will walk by churches, showing Chrsitianity is comming and he will fight a lot of opponents. But the fights becomes wierder and wierder, people seems to die before Biorn can get into battle and after a year he gives up. On the way home he sees a monestary being wrecked by a giant and he launches into battle. And epic fight is takes place. and the rest is a secret for know ;)... all this is subject to change of course, because we are still in an early fase.

Right know we are in preproduction, so I will start with a lot of sketches and concepts. Enjoy

Two years ago I started at the Animation Workshop in Viborg Denmark. The first year was only good old fashioned 2D animation. Here is a one of my 2D animations. I will put some more of them on the blog later.

I am at the end of my first year with 3D animation and here are some of the best of my 3D stuff. All of it, is made in Maya. Hope you like it :)
