My Loop
About Me
I'm an independent animator from Melbourne, Australia. For the past few years I've been making short films, music videos (including Moby and Sneaky Sound System) and motion graphics both for my self and contract jobs. The most notable thing I've given birth to in this time would have to be Rashman, a series of short animated films I co-created with my mate, Adam Leigh.
Hope you enjoy.
Cheers,
Maik
