Jeroen Bosch painter

Making an animation such as this requires a lot of work and precision. First, Chris de Krijger made a collage of digital drawings, photography, patterns and hand-painted paint layers for each scene. He then cut out all moving parts and reconstructed them into landscapes and figures using the video processing programme Adobe After Effects. The giant in this video, for example, is made up of individual body parts. The movement is made by moving these a tiny bit frame by frame until he finally moves as intended. This so-called ‘cut-out technique’ was originally done with paper, but today it is done digitally. It is made in 25 frames per second, which means that for the 3 minutes of this video, around 4500 individual images had to be placed one after another. For Chris de Krijger, the technique offered the possibility of actually allowing the painting to come to life without him having to draw everything himself. It is now really Hieronymus Bosch’s giant that moves
