What a nice surprise: Ariane and her sweet little daughter came over for a short visit.

Since Totems will move to another place it is time to get rid of the old stuff. The last four days Claudia was busy shredding old contracts, bills, assignments, estimates, etc.

This is Matthias. He’s one of the few guys in the industry who fights for our rights. Regarding excellent creative output and being fair in negotiating money matters. In fact: many – unfortunately too many – studios sell their work way too much under price. This situation is bad for everyone! Very bad! And if we, speaking of all studio executives, won’t stop this misbehavior, we will probably end very sadly under some bridge. Now. Listen up: Think entrepreneurial. Always come up with reasonable estimates. Never sell your work for a cent. It’s not worth it. Want to read more of the current status quo? Call: http://www.matthiaskindler.com/about/Blog/Blog.html

Theater addict Claudia invites you for the next open air play: The Misanthrope from the French author Molière. You could see her and the other usual suspects on four weekends in July / August. Need more information? www.sb-besigheim.de

After the Dutch Pavilion on the World Expo made the national news, the newest project of Totems Amsterdam made the news for the 2nd time! Totems was responsible for 3 projections in the new renovated museum of Hermitage Amsterdam. One of the projections in the Ballroom was on national Dutch television. The Dutch royal family enjoyed a Totems motion design for the 3rd time….we wonder if they realize that…

Here he is: Our womanizer! Fabiano. Even if he is stressed out until the ultimate limit… The only thing you have to do is to invite his girls (Ada, Luna, Jasmin) and no later than 5 seconds he starts smiling, is happy ever after and realized that his family is second to none! Well done, boy!

Here we go: 6’6” tall Fabian is giving instructions!
