What?
In a dark world of greed a king chases the secrets of universe and existence. Planemah is a trippy allegory about desire, ruthlessness and the complete loss of control.
How?
Planemah is made in 2D-Animation and was created frame by frame with a Cintiq 22HD and Toon Boom Animate. The Backgrounds are partly rendered and postedited in Adobe Photoshop.
Next Project?
At the moment I am working as a motion designer in an digital agency in Berlin. In the near future I want to start my next shortfilm project.
