Our Studio
We started with a projector, a story, and one belief: that image and light could change how a space feels entirely. That conviction has grown into a studio, a practice, and a close circle of people who care deeply about the same things.
For us, social responsibility runs through everything we do: the projects we choose, the stories we tell, and the way we work. That’s why we keep doing projects about inclusivity, climate, collective memory and the stories that public space can tell.
Meaningful work, made with care.
Analogue Soul,
Digital Craft
We start with the physical world – natural movement, texture, gesture – and bring it to life digitally.
How we work
From idea
to impact
1
Listen
We start with the space, the story, the people. Site visits. Conversations. Ask the questions others might skip.
2
Imagine
Our favourite part. We envision what could be: the story, the image, the feeling.
3
Sketch
Ideas take shape: storyboards, light tests, quick drawings. Nothing moves forward until we know what we want to say.
4
Create
The project comes to life in front of our eyes. Custom content, technical production, hardware. Every detail is handled with care.
5
Impact
We stay on location until it’s exactly right. We love to move people, to spark wonder, to make a difference that lasts.
Craft is personal. So are we.
The Team
The people behind
the light.
Beeldjutters originated at Oerol festival on Terschelling island in the Netherlands. The sand and the sea, a story to tell, and a name that says exactly what we do. Beeldjutters: those who salvage images. We have been doing it ever since. And over the years, a close circle of collaborators has grown around the same way of working. Specialists we trust completely. When you work with us, you know exactly who’s in the room.
Julian
Creative Director & Co-founder
There is a kind of magic in watching something come to life: a sketch that becomes an animation, an animation that fills a wall, a wall that suddenly holds a story. That moment is what drives him. He translates concepts into visuals and experiences, with a quiet precision and a deep love for the craft.
Vincent
Creative Director & Co-founder
Vincent never followed a fixed path and that is exactly what makes him. A conceptual thinker with a deep love for technology. He is the one asking the bigger questions, finding the idea underneath the idea. Where others see a brief, Vincent sees a possibility.
Sebastiaan
Technical Lead
The third pillar of almost every Beeldjutters production. There is very little in the world of light, video and technology that he does not know. As technical producer, he is involved from the first idea to the last calibration, turning creative vision into something you can actually see, hear and feel.
Niels
Fountain Master
Water is his domain. From designing and installing fountain systems to connecting projectors, media players and AV infrastructure, Niels handles the full technical picture. A hands-on specialist who also works with liquid slide textures outside of Beeldjutters.
Joost
Sound & Atmosphere
With us since the very first project. He can turn any sound into something spellbinding. A multi-instrumentalist with a particular gift for the cello and a calm, gentle presence on every set.
Donald
3D Animator
From modelling to rigging to rendering, Donald masters every step of 3D animation. He has a rare ability to take motion capture recordings and turn them into vivid, colourful characters that feel alive.
Pieter
2D and 3D Animator
Always ready to set keyframes or write scripts to bring an animation to life. An all-round animator with a collaborative spirit that makes every project run smoother.
Vic
Allround Support and Animation
Started as an intern, stayed for the work. Equally at home behind a screen making 2D animations as on location helping to build an installation.
Demian
Illustrator & Animator
A gentle presence with a sharp eye for detail. Demian works primarily with hand-drawn and digital illustrations that come to life through animation. From his own illustrations to the digital drawings made with 1,600 children for the Amsterdam Light Festival education project.
Denise
Building, Deco & Tech
Proactive and hands-on, always willing to go the extra mile. Denise can look at a space from both a production and a design perspective and make it work on both counts.
Monica
Marketing Wizard
Keeps Beeldjutters sharp and visible. She knows how to use social media and communication to move the needle and stays on top of it with energy and focus.
Olga
Interviewer
Long-time collaborator under the name ‘O Wat een Verhaal’. For community projects like Graffiti Utopia, Olga is the person who brings other people’s stories to the surface.
