Motion & design studio

BagelDog was started with the idea that good design and a relevant message needn’t be complicated, but it needs nurturing. We’re a small studio with big ambitions, and two medium-sized cats.

We approach each project with professionalism and personality – and we take your ideas personally. We believe that a strong idea must look good on paper, and even better in presentation.

We don’t sweat the small stuff, so that we can channel the big ideas. Bageldog understands that quality work demands consideration, empathy and steadfast dedication.

Deb Potgieter

The co-founder of Bageldog Studio, Debbie has 6 years of design, illustration and animation experience, coupled with 4 years of project management. Debbie is tenacious in both her work-ethic and her hobbies, whether it be performing Drum and Bass under the alias of Dakota or competing in Muay Thai. She packs a punch with every project she undertakes and is always striving to improve herself and her knowledge in the design and animation spheres.

When she’s not caring for Bageldog, her attention is on her two office morale-boosting cats, Monty and Bubby. Ask Debbie about her social media and she’ll confirm that indeed, memes = life.

Owain Oosthuizen

The co-founder of Bageldog Studio, Owain has a robust 6 years of experience in design, animation and illustration. His passion is in every project and his mind is always on making the good look even better. A perfectionist at heart, he also knows that the appropriate design sometimes requires imperfection. His calm and measured approach is evident in Bageldog’s work and reflects the studio’s sensibilities.

When Owain isn’t researching and implementing new ideas and styles, he enjoys competitive gaming and analysing its business aspect. If you peek at his personal Instagram you’ll also find his (not so secret) appreciation and knack for typography and hand-lettering.
