AWARD
1998 International Contest Future Vision Work (Framed by the Exhibition Work& Culture, Landesmuseum Linz) – Best project in the category „media“
A trustful and close client artist relationship is an important base for offering the best possible support. Specific briefings are always helpful and welcome. Fortunately, I never lack of good ideas, so together we can realize galaxies of different worlds, armies of characters and many, many awsome games and films. Finding a convincing punchline at the beginning eases the workflow. After that, scribbling can start and it’s great when you see that everything matches after a while. For me, the most successful projects are the result of effective synergies.
