Originally from Belgium, Max Vannienschoot graduated from Supinfocom, in digital production, in 2007. After nine years spent working for various animation studios, he embarked on a new career path, writing his first short film: Oskar. His personal experiences are the basis for his creative process and have led him to take an interest in the many facets of human nature. He is also passionate about analog photography, painting, and drawing, but through animation he has found the ideal medium for expressing his thoughts.
