Screenwriter & Director
for Children's stories


Meikeminne believes in the importance of telling stories that can resonate from within. Stories for children where they can see themselves and get triggered to grow. She truly believes in magic, and in the importance of magic in our daily life. She experiences this world to be multidimensional, and incorporating this into her work is part of her mission. In her movies, Meikeminne loves to look at the world through the eyes of a child and wonder about anything.

Because wonder is the elixir of magic.

ABOUT

Meikeminne Clinckspoor decided really young that she wanted to make children’s movies. After a theater education(2003) in Amsterdam, she started a film education (2005) at the Filmschool KASK in Belgium, where she graduated in 2009 with her Shortfilm for children “The Wishing Tree”. She wrote and directed several shorts for children and won numerous awards with them. Besides her work as a director, Meikeminne also worked as a professional children’s coach and casting director on international features. With her screenplays she was selected for “Sources II” (2010), “Binger Writers’Lab” (2013), “Binger Director’s Lab” (2012), and the Cinekid Scriptlab (2015).

Meikeminne lived in Sweden for more than a year, speaks Swedish and stayed three months in the Northern woods while working on her first feature length screenplay for children “Cloudboy”(2017). Cloudboy is a co- production between Belgium, the Netherlands, Sweden and Norway and mostly shot in Norwegian Lapland. Cloudboy is distributed by LevelK and their most asked festivallover in 2017. In 2019 Meikeminne’s most recent project “DOOPIE”, premiered on Dutch television, followed by Belgian and Spanish television in 2020. “DOOPIE” is a life action television series for toddlers.

Doopie was nominated for the “Prix Jeunesse”, “The Televizier Ster Jeugd”, “The Cinekid Audience Award”, “The Cinekid Best Television series” & “The Kids EMMY”. Currently Meikeminne is working on the Doopie children’s book, and is developing two series for toddlers(one life action, one animation), two feature films for children and one documentary for children. She is always open for new collaborations that align with her passion for children’s stories.
