Hi. Paula's here, I'm a self-taught artist and animator from Poland. I fell in love with animation when I was a child and since then I decided to do my best to get into the industry. I stumbled upon an opportunity to work in an animation studio called "Fumi" based in Warsaw as an intern and that was the place where I found out about Toon Boom. I was creating frame-by-frame animation and cut-outs as well back then. I was even eager enough to learn some rigging basics and I would love to explore this knowledge more since Toon Boom is constantly changing and the methods are different from those I learned some time ago.

"Currently based in Brussels Joost Jansen mainly works as art-director / director. As an international freelancer, he has been applying his visual identity to a wide variety of projects, ranging from his own author's films to documentaries, advertising films and video clips, etc. His animated shorts “A battle for peace” and “I love Hooligans” have won international awards and “Drifter” his 15 minute space trip has just been released. Joost Jansen's hand-drawn organic animation style shows common ground with comics, manga, and urban culture. And in his narrative style he often places existential social themes in a progressive 2D animated framework. "

Janice is a big fan of animation and sometimes works in it! When she's not writing or drawing over a hunched tablet, she enjoys hiking, playing guitar and skateboarding around her local neighborhood. She's had a host of professional experiences from radio, VFX, commercial, to TV animation. She enjoys creating independent films, music videos and small linoleum prints. Currently she's trying to master a dope kick flip and the “purdie shuffle” for jazz band.
