Tommy Hilfiger – Vendor animation
This animation was created for PVH (Tommy Hilfiger, Calvin Klein) to educate their vending partners on how to deal with intellectual property. The difficulty was in creating something without spoken or written language as their partners are located in many different countries, speaking many different languages.

animation: Mookx & Ruth Taylor
storyboard: Dustin Kershaw
audio design: Lea Jurida
Audi Q7 – Listen
To match the previous commercial we needed to re-create the location in which it was shot. We didn’t have acces to the original location so the environment you see in this one is created digitally. The car was shot with multiple light setups that were combined and placed into the newly created background.

EE – SIMOTRON 3000

production: Not To Scale

Asus – Modern Birds
Birds usually don’t have arms. Therefore they can’t use tablets… or laptops for that matter. Edward on the other hand had a little help in post-production. We gave him and the other birds in these commercials their arms so they could be productive members of society.

Marktal Rotterdam – Projection
As part of the art piece that decorates the ceiling and walls of the Markthal in Rotterdam several video-projections were made. This one was for the official opening of the building in October 2014. The projections are designed to be an extention of the printed image and blend in seamlessly.

Dummie de Mummie
In this children’s movie a young mummy comes back to life after being hit by a bolt of lightning. I was responsible for the majority of the visual effects shots which consisted mainly of the mummy’s ‘awakening’ and the thunderstorm during which it takes place. Lot’s of digital rain and thunderclouds were added too.

cinematography: Guido van Gennep

Under Armour – Seize Glory
Through projection mapping it’s possible to texture 3D objects in Nuke. Combine that with CG elements and a little comp-trickery and you can achieve some pretty cool looking effects. That’s basically the whole point of this web commercial.

Laidback Luke – Mufasa
On their way to a gig Laidback Luke and Peking Duk run into strange creatures. This jungle adventure in low-poly style was put together in three weeks total so it could launch together with the single. We had a lot of fun (and stress) making it.

Markthal Rotterdam – Wall Decoration
This art piece was created to decorate the walls and ceiling of the Markthal in Rotterdam. The image was rendered in 400 separate tiles and was composited using Nuke. No other software was able to handle the sheer amount of data used to create it. The image has a total resolution of 75.000 megapixels, that equates to about 10.000 digital pictures.

Heineken – The Switch
The funny thing about this commercial for Heineken is that most of what happens is actually real. Well, almost real. We did remove a few wires and added some backdrops and a fishtank. The postproduction was done at Glassworks.

agency: TBWA

Bavaria – Dress for Victory
Together with the people from Postoffice I worked on filling the stadium in this commercial with a cheering crowd. On top of that we added flags, confetti, flashing lights and football-players.

Duyvis – Goochelaars
Magicians have a lot of tricks (and rabbits) up their sleeve but sometimes they need a little help in post-production. For this Duyvis-commercial some of the illusions were created digitally to ensure that none of the actors were harmed during this shoot.
- director: Diederik Spaargaren
agency: DDB Amsterdam
production: Bäst

Blaudzun – Elephants
In this music video by Mirka Duijn and Nina Spiering for the artist Blaudzun many scenes were inspired by classic French movies. For the color grading we tried to capture the look and feel of these old technicolor movies.

production: Yellow Submarine

C1000 – Stars of Football
This commercial features well-known football players portrayed as superheroes. We were asked by director Marco Grandia to digitally enhance the actions of the players. In reality there were stunt-dubbles and a bunch of rigs that needed to be removed. I also replaced the head of a stunt-guy with that of Van Wolfswinkel.

Albert Heijn – Disney Originals
The idea for this commercial was for Harry, the supermarket-manager, to act out a Disney-like story. He’s trying to open a box that clearly doesn’t want to be opened. As a result he gets squashed and twisted. To create these shots we used a combination of 2D and 3D effects. I was responsible for the main part of the compositing and 2D effects.

agency: TBWA/Neboko
production: Caviar

Alex Verhaest – Angelo
For this art piece by Alex Verhaest she wanted to deform the face of the actor to give him a surreal, almost alien-like appearance. The head and body were taken from different shots to capture the right emotion. The left-hand image shows the original material of head and body. The right-hand image is a small part of the actual art piece which loops continuously.
- artist: Alex Verhaest
actor: Angelo Tijssens
stylist: Barbara Berends
post-production: Dustin Kershaw
Bart Constant – Do Better
This music video for Bart Constant was made by Mirka Duijn and Nina Spiering. They created a circus love story in an Eastern European setting. I was responsible for the colour correction of this movie that was partly shot om 8mm-film.

producer: Nina Spiering
