warming up












over the past month i have been working with the talented Director Iria Lopez  on her animated film Jamon. It will be completed in the new year and it already looks fantastic. i wish her the best of luck with all the final touches and i cant wait to see finished piece on the big screen! it has been an absolute pleasure working with you Iria, i will miss your lovely pig characters as well as your well made coffees.
     
I am now back to working with the creative team at insurethebox. The first order of business was to create a character from there logo to be included in a bill board campaign in Manchester. Unfortunately the socks didn't make it through but the lucky box that did was box no.8. So he'll be roaming the streets and bus stops of manchester in no time. 
ignore the final image i think i was very tired when i did that. More design exploration to come very soon. 
As ever your feedback is most welcome.

Continued design exploration



















these are continued explorations from this previous post. I was advised by wes to observe 'larger' members of the public and to look at there posture as well as think about there structure. so i did a bit of 'chubby chasing' during my daily my commute to work and sketched out these designs. 
please let me know what you think.

fellow commuters







over the last couple of weeks i have been assisting Director Iria Lopez on her wonderful graduation film over at the NFTS. Its been a pleasure working with her and it feels great to animate on paper again.   
Also the four hour return journey from Mordor aka Morden- Beaconsfield gives me plenty of time to continue my gesture studies. ill continue journeying up to Beaconsfield over the next two weeks, so stop by again to see if my studies improve.
