Experiencing Interruptions?

Moonflight

How does a knobbly biplane get to the moon on a summer night? With self-confidence and a bit of courage for adventure. Many children dream like this - and so do their favourite companions!

Director Biography - Christian Thamm

After successful years as an independent art & creative director with my own companies, I began to explore the moving image format in 2017. I'm excited about the creative and narrative freedom of expression I've gained, which ideally complements the scope of my core competencies - conception, storytelling and illustration. Since 2018, I have been working as a 2d animator and motion designer.
