I was so fortunate to get the job of painting the pictures to be used in the title-sequence for the TV-series based on Stieg Larson's Millennium trilogy. The task set by the art-director Philip Einstein Lipski was to paint in an old style....to make them look "hand painted" and he gave me a lot of freedom to come up with the layouts and the look of the paintings...it was a fun job to do. I have uploaded details of the full pictures. The series will be aired in 2010.
Quick colorstudies done last year for Jungo (3) goes Bananas. It was fun to work these two weeks on this feature.. Since this is a 3D film it gives a different lightness to the painting-process compared to painting for at 2D film as "Asterix and the Vikings" (where I was head of BG department) or "The Illusionist" where I’m working now. They were only studies and not keys ...and thought as a working tool for Director Jørgen Lerdam and the Art director Steen Mesterton ..It was fun.
Furthermore was I working on Jungo 1 and 2 as a BG painter for many years ago so I had been there before in the days of analog painting.
