Hair Animation for Propecia ad (Germany)

I created and animated a character for a flip book flash advert of hair product Propecia. This project was made in collaboration with super talented animator and friend Helen Schroeder for the German agency La Red (www.la-red.de).

Here you can see some early designs of the characters:

...and the final animation clip here:

Character design for the book "Money Go Round'

I was commissioned to design a character that would introduce the different chapters of a book about the history of economics called 'Money Go Round'.  

JC (his name) would wear a different disguises according to the time in history. In the image above we find him wearing Greek and Sumerian costumes.

  JC also appears as George III and... Queen Victoria.

And he makes an special appearance as Dr. Who and as a chicken.

Halloween's sketches

This October I have been sketching mainly MONSTERS. Have a good Halloween folks!

Character Design for Docusol's TV ad

Last Autumn I was commissioned by The Point agency to help in the design of the characters of an animated TV ad.

The campaign was for Docusol Paediatric Solution, a constipation relief developed specifically for children from 6 months.

We had to design several food characters on a slide, e.g. the Pizza fella...

Eventually the characters got stuck...

...but with the help of Docusol they could get unstuck and enjoy the slide again!

The last two images were used in the print campaign. You can see the finished animated TV advert below:
