Hi Markus, nice to see you here. Willkommen!
Can you tell a little bit more of your short (the one you mentioned when I visited you ?) - any link ?
Job concerns - I'll pm you.

The short is really short - 2:45 min - and is called "2 Berge" ("Two Mountains"). There's not much story to tell without giving away everything, but I intend to send it around to a lot of festivals. Another one is already halfway completed - animation's mostly done, now comes editing and the sound design - have to wait for a heavy rain to record that. This one I plan to premiere at Weiterstadt Festival in August - no prices to win, but a personal tradition to show my films there. And then I'm storyboarding something new, short but a bit more complex, to show at Stuttgart next year ...

About recording heavy rain; in my recent experience, when I needed that too. I discovered that automobile traffic from a window above a busy street on a mildly wet day can sound both like wind and rain, so does flapping newspapers and later speeding the track up, and sprinkling a garden hose (watering can too) on bushes or newspapers and using multi recordings creates an absolutely authentic effect of any degree of rain you wish to hear.
