- 2015-2019 - This Tumblr was open during my years as a student at Gobelins, Paris. - - Please follow me now on https://www.instagram.com/claire.matz/ - http://claire-matz.com/ - View all of my animations here : https://clairesanimatedstuff.tumblr.com/ - [email protected] -
Turn arounds of our two main characters, Edwin and Amaranthe !
I animated them, asked @marine-petri for character design check-up, and was helped by @luananguyentriluan for in-betweening !
Here are my layouts for our movie Oasis.
As I was head of layout, I actually had to work on almost every layout of the movie... with approximately a hundred shots and 60 to 70 layouts, those ones seems really not that much...!
Big thank you to @luananguyentriluan who helped me retaking those tons of layouts during our biggest rush of the year !!
The movie's been release yesterday and it already has more than 70k views on Youtube !!!!!!!
How amazing is this ?!?
I worked on Oasis from September 2018 until June 2019, and it was one the biggest challenge I've ever handled. But thanks to those people, it was a great experience and I'm proud of what we did together !!!
Go check their awesome work :

I really hope that you will enjoy the movie !!! Have a nice trip in our Oasis \o/
I am exceptionally using my Tumblr again because... My graduation movie “Oasis” is going to be release this Thursday !!!
During a year, I almost didn’t share anything about my work, because I was on this project 12h/day from October to June haha... And after that, work started :3
Although it was tough because of the amount of work and tight schedule, I had the pleasure to work in a team of amazing people. I will share the links to their work along with the movie itself.
Enjoy the trailer and... wait for two more days for the whole thing !!!
Oasis official trailer 🤩! The movie will premiere this week on the 26th!
Here is my new and empty (but hopefully not for too long) Twitter <3 (I don’t have Instagram and don’t have the courage to learn how to use a new social media right now) : https://twitter.com/claire_matz
I couldn’t spend time these months to share my work, because I had too much to do. Sadly, I could not use it here because I needed to wait until the end of the projects... well, I guess it will never be published here ^^'
Of course, some nudity got flagged, but also... background drawings... color keys... half of my animations... I don’t have the time to spend a whole day asking kindly Tumblr to choose better what he wants to censor.
BUT ALSO
I like nudity, guys. Nudity is not pornography, and neither of those two has to be bad, ugly, or dangerous for children and OH MY GOD A NIPPLE !!! HIDE IT !! HIDE IIIIIIIIT
I don’t mean all of the children should watch porn of course, just sayin that... sex images don’t have to be automatically classified as dirty... anyway
I truly think we would be living in a better, healthier society, if we could deal with “normal nudity” every day, accepting different human bodies as they are and stop accepting to show just perfect plastic bodies on every bus stop in the streets.
I’ll continue to draw naked bodies (all of my life, at least I hope so) and I’ll continue to try to find ways to show it to people. Because this is one of the many missions I consider to have as an artist. So I’m very angry right now, but time will pass, we will all forget about Tumblr <3 Censorship is just another thing to fight against for artists anyway.

Version courte en français :
Je n’ai pas eu d’occasions de poster ces derniers mois, travaillant sur des projets à long terme que je ne pourrai montrer que lorsqu’ils sortiront. Visiblement, ce ne sera pas sur Tumblr ! Si vous souhaitez suivre mes projets, vous pourrez désormais le faire via Twitter.
Quant à la nudité, j’aime ça, j’en ferai toute ma vie, parce que le corps nu d’un vrai être humain (et pas de poupées photoshoppées sur des abribus) c’est beau, c’est bien, c’est accepter l’autre et s’accepter soi-même, et si on en voyait plus, si nos enfants en voyaient plus, on vivrait sans doute dans un monde meilleur. Ce serait bien aussi de faire la différence entre nudité et pornographie, ça ne ferait de mal à personne non plus...
Je suis en colère et je m’en vais en claquant la porte, j’irai dessiner des bites, des vagins et des tétons ailleurs. Parce que ça fait partie de notre mission d’artiste de bosser pour un monde meilleur, et un monde sans bite, vagin ni tétons, ça n’a rien d’un monde humain.
Bisous
Little animation I did a week ago for the birthday of my friend @sarahncr :3
I’m trying to make simple things work... this is actually pretty fun and relaxing to make ^^
This is the piece that I gave to participate to our great exhibition at Gobelins, “ROUGE” !
We are very proud because the exhibition is so beautiful, thanks to the 80 artworks people of the school worked on, and thanks to the awesome job of @antoine-bonnet and @mathildeloubes, who did an incredible amount of work to make this event possible.
If you’re near Paris this month you can come to see it, it’ll close on April 27th !
Here is finally the 2D/3D acting I’ve been working on since 2 months !
I hope you’ll enjoy it :3
