Beast creates leader 'Man Bijt Hond'!

Thanks to the nice co-operation with Jan Eelen on the voice recording of the Flemish version of 'A Town Called Panic', Beast Animation got the opportunity to do a proposal for the next season's 'Man Bijt Hond' leader for Woestijnvis. And they liked it! So we created several walk and run cycles of the 'Man Bijt Hond'-dog and we will be shooting the stopframe animated leader on different locations in Flanders. Shooting will take several weeks, the leader will be on air in september 2009. In the meantime, enjoy these making-of pictures!

Humo will put the trailer on their 'wild site', postcards from the film will be all over flanders, an audio CD with extracts of the soundtrack is being prepared and soon you will see the filmposters everywhere.

Beast Animation goes Cannes!

Beast Animation working hard on 1 minute... penisodes!

Beast Animation is very proud to present its newest character: Master Bator, the only penis that really can be called a Superhero!

Master Bator plays the leading role in a 52 x 1 minute series for 'new' media players such as cell phones. The concept and the viral distribution of this type of mini series are aimed at both teenagers and young adults. The edgy humour and the atypical yet very recognisable characters should appeal to this broad audience.
