André Junker — Hamburg // Worldwide

Film. Illustration. Retouch.

Storyboards, previz and animation for film and advertising. Illustration and visualisation where the picture itself is the deliverable. Retouch on what already exists. Three doors, one desk.

Disciplines

Three things I do.

Black-and-white storyboard panels on a screen, seen at an angle: lab scenes, test tubes, an eye behind glasses

Film

Storyboard, previz, animation and rendering — for film and advertising. From first board to final frame.

Retouch

Cleanup, AI retouch, formats and set extensions — on stills and in motion.

Profile

From first sketch to final frame.

Hi, I'm André, a freelance Senior Artist for animation, 3D and illustration, based in Hamburg. I love bringing visual stories to life — combining classic craftsmanship with modern AI-assisted workflows. I cover the entire pipeline, from initial concept and storyboarding to final animation, rendering, and compositing across animated, live-action and AI-driven productions. I work remotely or on location, solo or plugged into your team.

Collaboration

Where I come in.

I come in early in the project, thinking in shots: staging, camera framing and shooting order — worked out in hand sketch, 3D blockout or generated frames, whichever lands it best and fastest for live-action, 3D or AI production.

Key visuals, staging, shooting order

I take shootingboards into timing, length and beat. From a simple boardomatic to a full 3D animatic. Actual focal lengths, rough animation and scene blocking, a first edit. On request, AI puts additional motion and a look on it already here. Fast to change, before anything is committed.

Animatic, timing, beat

Previz

I come in wherever the pipeline needs me: rigging, 3D blocking and taking a shot through to final polish. Hand-keyed, simulation-driven, or built on motion capture. Solo, or plugged into your team.

Rigging, blocking, final polish

Animation

Light is where a scene gets its mood. I shade and light from scratch or step into an existing setup — hero lights, atmosphere, materials that hold under the camera. Redshift, Octane, AI-driven rendering — whatever your pipeline calls for.

Look, mood, render passes

Lighting setup

From raw render to finished file. I retouch, composite and clean up the output — 3D passes, hand-drawn frames or generated images. Stills and motion, ready to ship or to feed whatever comes next in the pipeline.

Comp, retouch, deliver

After Effects composition — comp and retouch work in progress

Plug me into any point of a studio's production — or, on smaller projects, hand me the whole thing and I run it end to end. Remote or on location.
