Here’s the trailer from the cartoon forum we made this summer. We had super little time to do it, but fortunately I had this project waiting to be applied for something like this. Here I posted some sketches from before, and a design look of the project while it was originally planned for a music video.  Beleive or  not it was inspired from a Vasarelly poster (Olympische Spiele Munchen 1972), especially the colors, the characters came in a way later, and were formed into birds. Many of the people suggested they looked like gun’s bullets, the reason is, because they were inspired from bullets :)

below a sneak peak from the love bullets, the original never-made project, which was turned into the birds of cartoon forum polska.

Sometime in February I was asked by Jerzy Kucia in Krakow to jump on board on the production of his new film for e few weeks. It is still not finished, and therefore I am not allowed to show any excerpt. Finally I got so motivated that I am still working on it, and put my personal projects aside for a while. But the real thing for me was to work on a film which included so many different and classic techniques, also some vintage retro computing -see the image – I could again paint and work under a camera, and guess what… animate trees! This is also the first time in my life, that I am a payed worker on an art film! I start to like Poland even more :)

One of the crazy things I was involved this spring, was a project called Batory Epxress*. It was comissioned by the Hungarian Center in Krakow and it was connected to the European presidency of Hungary and Poland (both this year). There is not too much about it in English, so let me just introduce the idea: and old Polish mini van called “Nysa” went to 15 cities in Hungary and Poland during one month to collect stories and memories about the “friendship” of the two nations.

before and after :)

There was a lot of adventures, we organized a lot of events and happenings in every city, and we just had one month to prepare everything, so really I still can t beleive how we did it. (Also counting with the day-to-day unexpected problems… ) Amongst some of my favourite things were the Loesje workshops and happenings of Miej Miejsce in Lodz.  The final of the project is a big album of the documentations and photos brought by the citizens of the two countries.

oh, and also it was also a last-minite, do-it-for-yesterday graphic project for me :)
