SUMMER IN PARIS

2008-07-23T05:34:00.000-07:00

Here is the kind of people I see everyday in summer. They're really interesting, visually speaking. I would love them if they weren't as many and noisy.

BALLBOY

2008-07-12T11:40:00.000-07:00

Something from my portfolio. Tennis is so classy, even with giant ears, isn't it?

VERY OLD DOODLE

2008-06-19T08:16:00.000-07:00

I found this the other day in a pile of old drawings. I can't remember the concept of the show I created which had such a character. Well, too bad.

COMMANDER CLARK RETURNS

2008-06-02T07:12:00.000-07:00

Hi everyone! It's been a while since my last post, you might believe that I'm not doing anything right now, but you're wrong (partly). It's just that the things I'm working on are confidentials, bla bla bla, so let me present you the team of Commander Clark, my favourite pets living in a very cool spaceship and protecting the galaxy.
The production of the series will start in january, in Paris.

FAT CAMP GIRL

2008-04-24T07:21:00.000-07:00

One of my favourite character...

Aaaaahhh... La Campagne !!!

THE COOK

2008-03-17T15:17:00.000-07:00

I'm back! These past days I gave a helping hand on a project for Cartoon Network London. Of course I can't post anything from the project, so here is a design I didn't use.

VON KREEP

2008-02-26T02:24:00.000-08:00

Von Kreep asked me to do his portrait for his book. I warned him that it might be a little different...

CEREAL KILLERS

2008-02-14T13:33:00.000-08:00

Hi everyone! Here is my cereal box for Doktor Von Kreep's book. I had a lot of fun! Thanks Viktor.

FUTURE BOY !

2008-01-31T14:23:00.000-08:00

An old stuff... but you know... he REALLY is unbelievable !

SKETCHES

2008-01-19T16:15:00.000-08:00

I'm in the middle of my writing training, and I started to write an animated feature film (a project I have with my boyfriend Julien). I did some very quick sketches of our main character, and try to seize its essence. I'm not sure it works : she looks a bit insane, doesn't she?

ELIOT, C'EST PARTI !

2008-01-13T11:32:00.000-08:00

Amis français, vous pouvez désormais voir la série "Eliot Kid" sur laquelle tout le monde chez Samka Productions a bossé comme des oufs, tous les mercredis matin à 8h15 sur TF1. Et pour les amis anglais, bientôt sur BBC (si ce n'est déjà fait)!

COMMANDER CLARK

2008-01-01T08:05:00.000-08:00

I work for 2 years on a very cool project called Commander Clark, an animated TV series of 52x13' produced by the french studio GO-N Productions. I created all the characters and did the art direction of the backgrounds. I really look forward to start the production.

Here are some pictures from the teaser, directed by Jeremie Hoarau. Backgrounds drawn by Emmanuelle Fleury and Ermel Vialet, animation made by the french studio Je Suis Bien Content.

BABY MONSTER

2007-12-16T07:28:00.000-08:00

When I did this drawing, I thought that monsters probably become ugly only after their teenage crisis.

Hercule POIROT

2007-12-07T05:31:00.001-08:00

I love to read. All types of novels, but lately I dived into Agatha Christie's investigations, mostly the one with the famous Hercule Poirot. I think he's a very good character, to read and to draw!

CAT MARTINI

2007-12-06T02:59:00.000-08:00

Sometimes I have the feeling that when I leave home, my cat has it's own personal life. Sometimes it's just watching TV and having a beer, sometimes it's directing a big company by videoconference.

MY UGLY FRIEND

2007-12-02T11:21:00.000-08:00

Yes I admit it, I have a "real thing" for ugly characters. There's a chance you'll see some more lately.

KID AND DOG

2007-12-02T11:07:00.000-08:00

Crème Glacée

2007-12-01T14:37:00.000-08:00

Here is a short film I made with my boyfriend when we just finished Gobelins, in 2003. So it's not very new, but I really have a crush for it, because it's the very first film we did. It was a commission from the french chanel TF1, who wanted to broadcast 8 short films about "the peace in the world of children". It was quite hard to do a film which wasn't simple-minded, but I think we made it. Many thanks to Julien Bizat (who co-directed the film), Barth Maunoury, Mathieu Vig and Virgile Trouillot.

WILLY WILSON

2007-11-30T04:01:00.000-08:00

This is a test of design for Willy Wilson, a rich kid with no principles, who lives at the top of a fancy building in New York.

ELIOT KID

2007-11-28T04:43:00.001-08:00

Here are some characters I did for the series ELIOT KID, produced by the french studios Samka Productions and Safari de Ville. I worked on the production during 14 months and created over 250 characters for 52 episodes! The show should be broadcasted in January 2008 in France, on TF1.

Here is Eliot, dressed as a radish, with his friends Kaytoo and Mimi.

Le Traiteur

2007-11-27T09:27:00.001-08:00

Un premier test avec un des personnages que j'ai crée pour la série Eliot Kid.
