The BBC will broadcast 6 films from Jelle. The films will be part of a new TV show called Teethgrinder, starting January 2009.

Jelle also developed a series of animated "stings" for the show. Stings are short bits of a TV show. They are used to shortly break down the show in an original way to keep the viewer's interest.

Before this TV networks such as MTV, the CW(USA), MDR(Germany), Deutsche Welle, VARA(Netherlands) and The Box(Netherlands) have broadcasted films from Jelle.

Check the video at the right side of this site to see an example of a short animated film for VARA's TV show De Wereld Draait Door.

From 22 till 25 November in Eindhoven the STRP Art & Technology Festival will take place. During this festival the National Institut for Animation films(NIAf) will honor the famous George Pal with films of Dutch stop motion animators.

"Between 1934 and 1939 George Pal animated stop-motionfilms with a team of 25 people for instance for Phillips. These 'propagandafilms’ were true filmproductions wich were made in different languages and published in several countries."

My Animated World will be played in the stop motion Compilation from NIAf. The film is also part of the NIAf archive now. This archive is used by, for instance, film- and animationschool students.

Jelle produced an internet commercial for SWISS International Airlines. This commercial will be launched as a viral marketing video. This means the video will be spread by itself on the internet. For instance through weblogs and videoportals.

More often a viral marketing video is launched because it's a great way to reach a big audience without having media costs.

The commercial can be viewed here:

Jelle has animated
3 viral marketing videos for most different international clients. These clients are Swiss Air Lines, Friendscout24.de and Sparhandy.com.

The videos are due to be released in September. At the time these videos can also be viewed on this website.

     
     
   


Recently I've been filmed a whole day for the german (international) TV station Deutsche Welle

For this report they filmed my real life in contrast to
My Animated World. You can see me working on my new film for example. I also explain how some scenes from My Animated World were made.

The report will be broadcasted in September.

My Animated World keeps going strong by the request of MTV Networks Europe to send in the film for their new show called Best.Show.Ever

My Animated World has been viewed over 1,5 million times on the internet and will soon be broadcasted at the channels of MTV.

     
     
   




Dutch TV station Vara requested a new series of vingles(video jingles) for the show De Wereld Draait Door. They feature the reporters of the show called "de Jakhalzen". (the Jackals)


Jakhals isolde waiting. The banana eats itself.

I shot the stop motion animations for the new vingles in a studio in front of a bluescreen. This makes it possible for "de Jakhalzen" to fit in background wich fit with the reports they make.

     
     
   


My Animated World is released a while a go but is still being watched by about 4000 people daily, and is commented a lot. On many international weblogs and filmwebsites are articles about my film.



The following article also covers My Animated World and has been published in a German newspaper called Süddeutsche Zeitung. This article is very well written and covers my film in a much deeper way. The film was shosen internetfilm of week 3 in March.

A quote in German:

"My Animated World" ist eines der qualitativ hochwertigsten Videos, das man auf den Filmportalen findet. Dieser Clip, eine mitreißende Bild-Ton-Kollage, an der der User JelleVanDun sechs Monate lang gebastelt hat, hätte auch bei einem Kurzfilmfestival gute Chancen. Jelle zeigt in 4:56 Minuten einen Tag in seinem Leben und wie sehr eine visuelle Subkultur seine Wahrnehmung der Welt beeinflusst."

The great article can be read here.

     
     
   






Shuffle is the most popular dance-party of Haarlem.
By request of the Shuffle organisation I made a compilation DVD of my work. It contains My Animated World, the Buxus animation, a few original stop motion experiments, and a preview for my next film.

The trailer will also function as visual decoration at the event.

Also, I was asked to design the visual support for the granting of the Spill Group Game Award at the NLDG of 2006.

Recently, an interview with me has been broadcasted at the music station The Box during the show Moccah.

Moccah is a television show at which talented or remarkable people tell about what they do in life, they explain why they do it and how they do it.

In the interview about my movie “My Animated World” I tell about my passion for stop-motion animation. Also, I explain how this technique is being used for making movies. The will also show pieces of My Animated World during the interview.

In October’s issue of techlifestyle magazine Bright you can read an interview with me about My Animated World and My own company.

The article belongs to the section The Bright Bunch. The Bright Bunch are people with a sparkle in their eyes. Passionate. Optimistic. Open minded and drawn to new things. Ambitious but playful. They are creators. They are smaakmakers. They are children of the digital revolution who know their way in the network. They use the tools of today to create.

     
     
 

 




For Vara’s popular show De wereld draait door I made about 50 short animations which will support the emotions of the “Jakhalzen (Jackals)”.

“De Jakhalzen” is a returning item at the show. Several reporters make great reports. By using stop-motion animation I tried to show their emotions in an original way.

“De wereld draait door” is broadcasted every day at Nederland 3 at 7.30 pm.

Jelle made this product animation for Buxus nursery van Dun. This movie shows the manufacturing process of the Buxus sempervirens. In august 2006 and august 2007 the movie was shown at the “Plantarium” in Boskoop. This animation is a nice example of an original product presentation.

This Stop Motion Animation takes you into another world. In this world no physical laws count. The only laws that count are the laws of the Animator.

The intention of this movie is to show the viewer another perspective of their environment.

The movie is made for DVD but you can view the web version here:
