Flash/Character Design: BBC “Taggers” Pitch

Wednesday, October 22nd, 2008

As part of a pitch for an online animation series called “Taggers”, a tale of young graffiti artists, and their trials and tribulations. Those fantastic Shoreditch creatives,”Preloaded”, were leading the job. I produced these character, background and concept designs, starting as always on paper and finishing all artwork in Flash. 

Some roughs…

Background inks and finishes…

Characters…

A selection of boards for Director Jake Nava, one of the best in the business, working for Jake is never dull.

Client: Rimmel. Director: Jake Nava. This was one of many Nava’s Rimmel ads starring Kate Moss.

Client: Nathalie Imbruglia. Director: Jake Nava. Music promo for the artist’s ”Shiver” single. We were in the same hotel at one point, but I was never allowed to meet her. I didn’t ask, they just told me.
