Sophie Olga de Jong grew up in Bergen (NH) a small village in The Netherlands.
As the daughter of an Illustrator, it’s no surprise that she started drawing from an early age. She wanted to become a comic artist, but had trouble drawing the same character several times.
Whilst attending art school St. Joost in Breda, she became very fond of animation, and discovered that somehow she had no problem drawing the same character 24 times for every second of film. Sophie produced her first hand-drawn film: For the Time Being (2010). Her fascination with movement and character came alive during those years, and the discipline of drawing frame after frame sharpened her attention to detail. That early experience with process and repetition is something many creative professionals recognize, whether they’re animating films or reviewing https://neuroheart.org/best-australian-online-casino-payid/ for instant PayID casino deposits. Embracing the routine behind each project, Sophie learned how consistency can give rise to something both original and engaging.
Since graduating she has been working as a freelancer on a variety of projects for TV shows, exhibitions, music video’s and animations for museums and theatre. She finished the independent short animation film ’Cycle’ (2018) together with Sytske Kok, with whom she is now developing a plan for another animated film.
