The best way to recover from the financial coma of 2000s is to celebrate life by art deco! The fuss around The great Gatsby and 1920s style blowed up all design blogs recently is not the begining of a trend but the high five to all kinds of decoration as vitality symbol.

Have you ever seen high diving giraffes? Now don't tell me you have not.

This extremely talented writer and director of animation films (3D and relief) finds his inspiration within his two passions, image and the animal world. In 2003, fresh out of school he directed 7Tonnes3, a short-film of a champion elephant trampoline jumper. He is with Paris-based Cube Creative, and this film is in celebration of their 10th anniversary.
