Behind-the-scenes of the promo we made for Filmhub Zuid-Holland. Filmhub; the process from film-shoot to 3d animation to final result.
Filmhub Zuid-Holland is part of a national network of film education hubs committed to teaching school kids the language of film, because the world opens up for those who learn to ‘speak film’.

Doggerland - Lost World in the North Sea
Motoko produced three animations as part of the exhibition "Doggerland" at the National Museum of Antiquities (RMO) in Leiden. The story of Doggerland begins in the time of the ice ages, when Doggerland was a vast grassy steppe. Over the past million years, the bottom of the North Sea floor was mostly dry land.
In collaboration with a team of experts at the RMO and Keen, Motoko developed two story lines about the intriguing story of the now flooded Dogger Bank area, starting a million years ago, through present time, into the near future.

Inequality is rooted in the United States and to make a change it needs some fundamental reformation. A few years ago we collaborated with Submarine Amsterdam and director Roger Ross Williams who explored the forces that fuel America’s sprawling prison system. His documentary unveils a disrupted criminal justice system in which the victims are mostly poor Afro-Americans, trapped in a vicious circle as part of modern-day slavery.

Throwback or… Tax Free Thursday 💰 Six years ago we produced a line of animations for two similar episodes of VPRO Backlight: The Wall Street Code and Tax Free Tour. Those who’ve seen these episodes can confirm it exposed a serious disproportion on how money and wealth are distributed worldwide, which is unfortunately still relevant today 🤔
Today it is Liberation Day in The Netherlands! It marks the celebration of freedom and the end of the Second World War. In the context of 75 years of liberty we selected some striking scenes of the animation we made about “ The Oranjehotel”. Here prisoners were held in isolation for weeks. During those lonely days prisoners daydreamed about their liberation, just to survive.
The full animation and story about The Oranjehotel is exhibited permanently at @nationaalmonumentoranjehotel - which is currently closed due to the Corona crisis, but hopefully re-opened soon.

In the context of 75 years of liberty we selected some striking scenes of the animation we made about “ The Oranjehotel”. Today the first scene in which Dutch prisoners are captured by the occupier and as usual facing against the wall.
Oranjehotel was the nickname for the Scheveningen prison during the Second World War. Over 25,000 people were detained at this prison in Scheveningen by the Germans, for interrogation and prosecution.
The full animation and story about The Oranjehotel is exhibited permanently at Nationaal Monument Oranjehotel - which is currently closed due to the Corona crisis, but hopefully re-opened soon.
