About

I'm an Animation Professor at LUCA School of Arts, campus C-mine in Genk, Belgium. I teach at the Re:Anima Joint Master in Animation and I'm a senior researcher at the Genk Research Unit, in the 'Critical reflections of and through animation' cluster. My research interests include philosophy of Technics, power relations inscribed in and reinforced by technical objects, and decolonial perspectives in animation. Previously, I was an Animation Professor at Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG), in Brazil. MFA and PhD by the Graduate Program in Arts at EBA/UFMG. I'm also a free software advocate, animator, rigger and I also like to code. You can see some of my works and know a bit more about me at:

2007-Aug-01: Dover Boys, Model Sheets and Stuff

After reading this post on Keith Lango's blog about the superb work done by Bobe Cannon in The Dover Boys (1942), directed by Chuck Jones, I have found out this awesome blog run by Kevin Langley: Cartoons, Model Sheets and Stuff. It's a goldmine for everyone who loves cartoons, and does exactly what the title says. I wonder how could he got all those originals...

Our bookmark list is growing bigger every day. =D
