Erik creates films and television shows, using different animation techniques as well as live action and documentary style filming. Projects are often produced entirely in house; idea development, screenplay, storyboarding and animatics, animation, music etc. When needed collaborations are established with companies in Holland or abroad. Have a look at some of the current projects.
Dutch writer, director, and animator Erik van Schaaik, recognized for Vent and Under The Apple Tree, is currently working on two feature projects: stop-motion animated feature film Nosferatu Reanimated, and live action feature Ghost In The Machine (working title). Also, he is storyboarding an Appletree follow up, stop-motion short film The Smile.
Anita van Dalen, Erik’s regular collaborator, experienced in the field of new media, festivals and theater, (co-)produced several of Erik’s films and is head of marketing.
