Hello, I am Stijn Michiels and I'm known for my art alias Futova. I'm a creative visual designer located in Belgium with a variety of art activities. I specialize in identity design (video, motion, branding, illustration, social media content) and interface design (UX/UI of websites and applications). I make my designs so that they meet your needs and represents your brand in its full glory. I have an eye for modern web trends and like to explore a diverse range of styles.
I started freelancing in 2016, after graduating as a web designer. I combined this with music & entertainment business such as DJ performances and organizing events. A year later I felt like learning more about digital design techniques so I started my bachelor's degree in Digital Design & Development at Devine Howest. I graduated in January 2021 after an internship as a visual storyteller & digital designer at Once Storytelling, part of Leap Forward.
I worked over 2 years as a motion graphic designer & video editor at video production company De Videonauten. I did this in combination with part-time freelance work and afterwards I worked as a full-time independent freelancer for a year. From May 2024 I started with a permanent collaboration as a video content creator at digital marketing agency Kruisraket. I am currently available for part-time freelance opportunities.
