And finally some new illustration from me…
A design was needed for the EAM 2009 T-shirts. So everyone made their own and we got to choose in the end. It was a nice surprise when the guys picked mine. The illustration represents all of us in a cartoony way. Special thanks goes to Konrad for the text and Ana for editing! I am quite curious how these are going to look on us…?!

May was a pretty intense month. After Stuttgart we hardly had time to even wash our clothes and we had to leave again. Not that I am complaining or something – it is a lot of fun, but it is also nice having some sleep from time to time… :)
Next was Prague – and Prague is always a GREAT pleasure!!!
We managed to do some sightseeing too, but we saw the city mostly by night and mainly in the pubs. We also had a really intense night watching the Champions league and shouting for the Ukrainian team in an Irish pub surrounded by Germans! But we survived, and we WON and it was lots of fun!!!
In the daytime we worked on our EAM group puppet animation project at HAFAN film studios. We got to know a LOT about each other and working in team. At the end everyone was in love with stop-motion animation and we even had a kind-of-ready raw project. Nazdravi!
Next to come – Annecy!

girlies rocking at the FMX

May 5-8 we jumped over to Stuttgart to visit two of the coolest animation events this spring. FMX 2009 was absolutely amazing. We have got almost no sleep, but it really was worthed running between the workshops and the Stuttgart International Trickfilm festival screenings.There were so many interesting things going on at the same time that you could hardly choose.

And the parties afterwards rocked so much as well!!
So see you at FMX 2010? Hope so!

This is a special post! Just to officially announce that I finally GRADUATED as a Bachelor of animation - with honors of course!
And right after this effort many many nice things started happening. First of which was participating the European Animation Master class and because of this I moved to live in Germany. So now I`m here. And I am "working on" myself :)

More news and the video of my diploma short are up to come soon!

keeping a low profile seems to be the new trend! to be present everywhere and in the same time not sharing almost anything about yourself...the good old game of hot and cold and keeping the interest alive :) I somehow "happened to be" in this new trend, but it is just because I really had TOO MUCH to do recently... although I am planning to update soon! So please excuse my low profile for now... ;) officially I`m not in the trend..

Christmas desktop wallpaper

I`m experimenting with a new style, and though it might be a bit early thought that this might be a good opportunity to publish it as a free desktop wallpaper for the coming holidays. The resolution is 1600x1000 pixels. Enjoy!
