The Selfish Giant

A short trip on an easychair.

Has feeling got a physical representation? This video is the story of a feeling represented by a warm vibration spreading all over the body.

I found myself creating this little Nursery Rhyme, in to a Gothic Lyrical Experimental Animation at midnight, whilst on a break from my other Animated Project. It is just something that allowed me to develop my Experimental Animation making and to use previous Sketches and Archived Animation footage which I have never used before.

This little film, which juxtaposes animated sand and scratching on 16mm film, was made during studies at the Royal College of Art. The starting point of this film was the sentence "but it's always when you're asleep that I want to talk to you", read on a wall in the underground... a phrase actually taken from a Mano Solo song.

A film about human interaction and attachment, The People explores the mark people leave on each other and the space they occupy. The watercolor’s fluidity and transparency are the tools used to communicate the emotional tone of the film.

Là où poussent les coquelicots

Walking towards the fire. In a ceaseless stream of light, people, landscapes and objects lead us to mysterious regions. French filmmaker Patrick Bokanowski’s work is hard to classify - and all the richer for it. Together with his wife Michèle, whose musique concrète compositions form the basis of the sound design, Bokanowski offers a prolonged, dense and visually visceral experience of the kind that is rare in cinema today. Difficult to define and locate, its strangeness is quite unique.

Memories split in the space.

Film directed from the play "Orpheon", directed by François Tanguy, played by the Compagny of Raft.

The cartoon is based on several Krylov's fables.

A world-famous boys' choir goes on a tour. In the hands of their severe conductor they are an obedient musical instrument. But left alone without supervision, they are just playful children. Once in Seoul the conductor is accidentally trapped in the elevator, and the boys are left alone.

"The Role of Chance" ("La part du hasard") focuses exclusively on drawing and painting techniques used by the painter Henri Dimier. Shot over several weeks in the same artist's studio, the film shows works in their different phases, processes rarely explained or little known. It also addresses many practical issues (choice of paper, pigment grinding, reports drawings, put the tiles, cliches, etc) as well as broader questions of method and inspiration (use of space, the role of contours, power of suggestion perspectives, use of random processes). Patrick Bokanowski sought with this film to restore the spirit of this teaching, showing how to bend a note or sometimes revealing an essential mystery of creation.

On a tabletop mountain a mahout and his strange herd make a surprising and never-ending journey.

A parody/mashup of the claymation animated children's show "Pingu" (1986-2006) and the cult-classic sci-fi/horror film "The Thing" (1982).

One of several short films. Claymation that follows the misadventures of a mad anthropomorphic frog chef, often facing mishaps and disaster in his kitchen.
