What is your name and your current occupation?
My name is Signe Baumane and I am an independent animator, which means I am a producer, writer, director, designer, animator and cleaning lady of my own films. (I am a woman, if my name doesn’t make that clear)

 

What are some of the crazier jobs you had before getting into animation?
Wait. I got the crazy jobs AFTER I chose animation as my life and profession. To be able to stay in business I did some dog walking, applied for strip dancing jobs (was accepted but didn’t have guts to actually show up for the job), had to give bath to a 87 year old man, masturbate in front of 76 year old man, clean a few bathrooms, paint walls in restaurants, and make 30 paper mache sculptures for a Famous Italian fashion designer.

 

What are some of your favorite projects you’re proud to have been a part of?
From my own work I like “Tiny Shoes”, “Birth”, “Teat Beat of Sex”.

I had a job selling chocolate cover amond’s, door to door at double the price you’d usually get a box for normally.  They drove us around in a small school bus to different neighbourhood’s to petal their over priced chocolates. The biggest joke about the job was the pay.

 

What are some of your favorite projects you’re proud to have been a part of?
I worked on this independent project. It’s called the Mosaik Project,  the idea was to showcase some of Toronto ( Canada ) talent base. The funny thing  is I almost didn’t get the gig.  I was asked to design Toronto but from a robotic view point. I was told I couldn’t use any existing robot designs concepts, everything needed to be original.  I’m sure anyone who designs will agree this kind situation doesn’t happen often. I had full creative range with respect to the clients final approval .  In the end the client was very happy with the work.

 

How did you become interested in animation?
I listened to a lot music growing up .  I use to day dream about how Continue reading
