Manpaard was founded in 2018 by Laurens and Vincent De Mets. Being twins, we started working together nine months before we were born, discussing animation movies at age three, collaborating creatively at age four.

We created Manpaard to turn our love for drawing, animation and storytelling into something productive: to craft animated stories, together with you. Our aim is to turn your request into expressive content with clear storytelling and design.
