Hi! I'm Fabian and I work as a director at Cartoon Saloon.

For the past 26 years I have been involved with most of the Saloon's best known movies and TV-shows:

​​

I was Animation Supervisor on three Academy Award nominated films

'Song Of The Sea', 'The Breadwinner', and 'The Secret Of Kells'.

​​

I was Assistant Director on the feature films 'My Father's Dragon' and 'Song Of The Sea', co-director on the TV-show 'Silly Sundays',

and co-director of the Annie Award-winning short film 'There's a monster in my kitchen' alongside Tomm Moore.

I received the Irish Animation Award as 'Best Director of an Animated Series' for 'Dorg Van Dango'.

​

Currently I am Assistant Director on an upcoming feature film at Cartoon Saloon. 

I have represented the studio at international events such as Annecy, Cartoon Forum, FMX, Fantoche, Spark, Monstra,

We are Playgrounds, or Shanghai Film Festival, facilitating making-of presentations and panels.

​​​​​

Besides my work I enjoy teaching and sharing knowledge with students.

I've taught specific curriculum modules at The Animation Workshop in Denmark (2010 - 2017) 

and at Animationsinstitut Ludwigsburg in Germany (2022 - present).

​​​​

I am a proud member of the Academy Of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, as well as of the European Film Academy,.

​​​​

We work in an amazing medium. I'm grateful to have collaborated with so many interesting people over the years!​
