The Vegetarian Fox

Here are some better pictures from an illustration exercise we did yesterday. We had a day to draw 7 spreads for a story we got (that we wrote 1 sentence each). With the time restriction we got we had no time to think too much whether it looks good or not, but rather expressive and focusing on the bigger picture.This is more or less the original text i got: " Once upon a time there was a lamb who combs its hair everyday because she wants to be pretty. One day a vegetarian fox stole her long hair and wore it so he can eat grass all day. He made friends with the bunnies but just when they thought he was a friend, the fox ate them all. The moral of the story is no matter what you wear you can never disguise your real self, especially when you're a vegetaran fox - and no fox can be a vegetarian."
As u can see this is more like a draft, but I really enjoyed being able to loosen up my stiffness and my habit of trying to make things perfect from drawing with the tablet all the time.

Baby Action

Last week I helped my friend Johan on his test shoot for a kids TV program. Its a game show where the children (age 6-9) have to draw a word from a box and spin the wheel with different genres, then use the word and the genre to make a short film. They're given 15 mins to make a story, choose their own costumes, make a background for the scene and act it out themselves as we the adults help them to film. The show is totally driven by the kids and the adults are only there for technical support. Its amazing how little time they used to come up with a story.


A team of 2 boys got the word "baby" and their genre is action. They made an awesome film about a family (all members played by the same kid) arriving at Hawaii during their one-year vacation. It smells like fart in Hawaii and the family took out their guns and started shooting at the babies on the island.
