About

I had the privilege of working for 87th Academy Award nominated animation studio "Job, Joris & Marieke"​ on their animated short film (Otto).

"A little girl accidentally leaves her imaginary baby brother behind at a restaurant — and suddenly, for a nearby childless couple, the definition of "baby"​ takes on a new and completely unexpected dimension. (Otto) is a charming animated short from the filmmakers who brought us the Oscar-nominated A Single Life."

"Eric is a 3D modeler with a great sense of taste and style. He has a lot of attention for detail and he's a good teamplayer. He can work independent and handles feedback in a good way. We loved having him on the team with both our films '(Otto)' and 'Heads Together'." - Job, Joris & Marieke
