Cinematic Drohnen Shooting mit meiner Muse
@hellenafoxx 🖤 in der wunderschönen Wachau auf der Ruine Hinterhaus. ⚔️✨

Gefilmt wurde alles mit meiner DJI Avata 2 FPV-Drohne, um die mystische Landschaft und die Witcher-Vibes bestmöglich einzufangen. ⚔️✨

Portraits for @basstoker
Artist and designer and the founder of @studio_haha Through objects, installations and workshops, he explores the strange, familiar and sometimes absurd sides of being human. Using playfulness and unexpected perspectives to momentarily question our sense of ‘normal’.

A little festival run for Nooit meer slapen! We found a few new eyes and ears around the world and somewhere along the way we picked up Best Music Video at Lift-Off NY!!! 🤩

Created with a cozy team @tanjabusking @carmen.hellena @erikcreutzberg the film explores @reindier__ experience of sleeplessness during cancer medication, drifting through that strange space where time and reality start to bend.

Today marks officially my hobbit coming of age at 33🧌🥳
What an adventure! In elven years I’m miles away from reaching adulthood at 100 👵🏻🧝‍♀️ #foreveryoung

A Happy birthday to me and all previous versions of myself.
I’m happy to welcome you and wish you love that grounds you, connection that feeds you, excitement that uplifts you, clarity that lightens you, consistency that’ll move mountains and the courage to always continue. I love you!

And whoever is reading this - I wish the same to you 🫶✨

Now go out slay some Demons or Dragons or write stories over them or become friends, yes tame em. Which brings me to the last picture being the first one in Black&White - it gave either “funeral picture vibe” or an authors portrait in a book. In any case it gave 90s
You may not call me old 🌚

Shuttle Island – The Split Seal Killer

Watch it here: https://youtu.be/DYUJ64Smn9U

5 suspects.
1 killer.

Who could it be?
Or perhaps… there’s more lurking in the shadows.

On Shuttle Island, nothing is what it seems. Every glance hides a secret, every silence tells a story. As the mystery unfolds, the line between hunter and hunted begins to blur.

The question isn’t just who did it, it’s who will survive the truth.

No amount of self-sought fury will bring back the glory of innocence
Take me back to Eden

#sleeptoken lyrical genius. 🫶

This #fallenangel concept is sitting on my desktop for a few months by now. I honestly love a lot of shots taken that day - and I really couldn’t decide between them or between their colour grading 🫠 so I ended up editing quite a bunch, all with different colours/moods 🙃. And here’s the first “set” 🙇‍♀️

Thank you @steveblainefly for helping me that day. The wind/weather was definitely a paid actor - it was storming and raining while the sun was shining. Incredibly beautiful

Van gymzaal naar droomwereld in één slapeloze nacht. Aluminiumfolie die danst in de lucht, de camera hoog aan de kraan, en ik hangend aan een trekhaak. Dank aan @erikcreutzberg voor het vastleggen van de magie en de geweldige edit.

Nooit meer slapen VFX breakdown Vol 1 💫 The dream 🌙 swipe for more in depth breakdowns

Nooit meer slapen (Never sleep again) is a story born of @reindier__ experience of sleeplessness for days on end while on mexamethazone and radiation treatments. It is also a project born of love for creating mystical worlds and seeking the escape of digital dreams. A dream team that came together fueled by inspiration, enthusiasm and club mate. 🧉
