Playmobil - The Movie (2017-2018)
From March 2017 to August 2018, I've been working as Set designer on "Playmobil - The Movie", under the supervision of the amazing Julien Rossire and Rémi Salmon, at ON Animation Studio in Montréal.
This as been a wonderfull experience! Working with a great team, along many talented people, on a movie that I really like, despite a lot of weirdly hatefull and frankly unfair critics.
So here you'll find examples of my work on this movie: set and props design, as well as b&w and color concepts. Enjoy!
