Well Hello! It's been an awfully long time! I hope you are all keeping safe and well during this difficult period. I'm posting here because I am very excited  and proud to announce that 'Here We Are: Notes for Living on Planet Earth' has been released on Apple TV+!! Why is this a big deal? It is my very first project as an Animation Supervisor for one thing, which threw up a whole load of new challenges and experiences my way - I'm very proud of the result - and it's just a beautiful piece of film to boot, ranging from design to story to colour... It was made at Studio AKA and I couldn't have asked for a nicer, more talented bunch of people to work with. So to watch you will need Apple TV+ BUT DO NOT FRET there is a free 7 day trial - so why not use up the trial to watch this animation - it also gives you an excuse to watch anything else on there too :) Aside from encouraging you to watch the film, if people are reading this post, then  I would also encourage you to follow me on Instagram as, even though I post somewhat rarely, all my news and artwork goes there now. Thanks for listening and I hope you enjoy and share the film with your friends and loved ones! Stay safe, 'Till the next

I now have an Instagram account (better late than never) that will run alongside the Tumblr for a bit, but then replace it entirely, so if you would like to keep following my work, feel free to follow me @laurentrossiart :)

I’m a 3D guy… but don’t want to limit myself so I made a reel just for my 2D work :) Includes a test I did last year for a friend’s project. Happy New Year!! 

Amazing how different scanners perceive the same coloured paper :’)

Stéphanie loves to run :) My first attempt animating on a Cintiq! It was super fun to use - I think if/when I get used to the Cintiq/TVPaint combo, I’d like to try and do some more in depth 2D stuff :)

It’s been a year since I left Illumination Mac Guff in Paris to work for Laika. This reel is a collection of some of my work over the three and a half years I was there. Films include, 'The Secret Life of Pets', 'Minions' & 'Despicable Me 2'. Many thanks to everyone at the studio who I had the opportunity to work alongside and learn from - it was a pleasure!
