ANIMATOR AND WRITER
WHO IS JANIS GOETHALS
AND WHAT DO I WANT?I'm a dreamer who gets his ideas from everyday life. I strongly believe that we can find inspiration anywhere. I always want to be ready for the next idea — to write it down and start working on it, whether that means letting it sit for a while or jumping on it immediately.
I started my creative journey with writing, because I experience the world as such a wild, living, and buzzing place. For me it's something to explore and to be critical about. The world is complex, and that gives us all the more reason to engage with it — whether creatively or in some other way.
I tend to reflect on difficult subjects that most people try to ignore. I want to share my ideas with anyone who might find them interesting, and I hope that my journey of self‑development can inspire others.
