For my hometown Leeuwarden, in the north of the Netherlands, I created a wide range of animations, explainers, and commercials.
In 2018, Leeuwarden was named the Cultural Capital of Europe — a major event that brought millions of visitors to the city. To support the campaign, I worked closely with the event team to produce TV spots, online promos, and animated explainers used across broadcast and digital platforms. This page features a selection of the many projects I proudly contributed to during this unforgettable year.

The Story
Leeuwarden-Friesland embraced its year as Cultural Capital of Europe with boldness and imagination.
In a time of rapid change and growing diversity, the region chose to lead by example, transforming from a close-knit community into an open one. Through creativity, courage, and a willingness to listen and adapt, Leeuwarden-Friesland sparked dialogue, inspired new perspectives, and helped shape change at a local, national, and European level.
Our era is changing. The world has grown and society is more diverse. It takes a great deal of courage, creativity and imagination to deal with those changes. Leeuwarden-Friesland tackles its Capital of Culture year by sticking its head above the parapet. By bringing about change in the province, country and Europe in order to go from a community to an open community.
Dare to dream.
Dare to act.
Dare to be different.
That’s what
Leeuwarden-Friesland is about.
