My name is Jens and I'm a freelancer based in Berlin. I specialise in motion graphics and 3D. I've been passionate about my job for 18 years now and just love to let off steam creatively. During this time, I was very close friends with the agency life for the first 10 years and was able to create animatics for clients such as Siemens, Jungheinrich and Olympus. I then also got a taste of the corporate side. I supported the comdirect bank design team for a two-year period. The key factor was the urgent need to expand the CI and style guide to include motion design and anchor it as an integral part. During this time, I started to prepare for my self-employment and gradually expanded my customer base. I also work as a co-founder of Cleer, which gives me the added value as a designer to feel at home in the areas of editorial and print. In 2023 we finally launched our first product, the Learning Journal, which will be realised in cooperation with Leuchtturm1917. And now... I'm hungry for more! New experiences and great people play the most important role. If you're curios feel free to visit my website: _Website not available. Sign in: https://www.twine.net/signup_

    paper WELT - Screenforce Days 2024

    The focus of the Screenforce Days is on the elaborately staged screenings, which at the same time provide an insight into the broadcasters’ content strategies.

    This is the second time that we have been able to feed the WELT stage with creative and expressive 3D animations. The goal was to present the new sports channel. No limits, but it had to be impressive. The best time to exhaust the new particle system of Cinema 4D.

    Thank you Kays Khalil for the great support and a result that has nothing to hide.

    paper Leuchtturm1917 - 3D Replicas

    For over two years now, I have been helping the LEUCHTTURM1917 to translate their products into photorealistic 3D replicas, thus opening the door to more possibilities.

    Leuchtturm has understood exactly these possibilities and knows the benefits in terms of fast editing, whether colors, layouts, etc., flexibility in scene setups or scalability in the areas of motion design or social media.

    In addition to the great collaboration, the project is very challenging, as the complex 3D data and renderings finally have to be delivered as templates for further in-house editing.

    A perfect example of when passion and customer requirements get along so well.

    paper Refokus - Time To Refokus

    Refokus combines a passion for outstanding design and an insatiable curiosity for new technologies. This union allows innovative brand and web experiences to emerge.

    To boost this experience, I support Refokus with 3D animations and motion graphics. No matter if hype videos, website graphics or walk-through animations, their ideas offer creative scope for many use cases.
