Some test ch design for an animation, in collaboration with animadventure1.blogspot.comand Mitch.
Kika & Bob in Vegas
I have bee sitting on these designs from the 'Kika and Bob' series which I worked on, together with my 'Comrades' (see links) and was completed last year. Art direction is off course by the mythical Fons.The scene represented the arrival and raise to financial success in America by the many immigrants in the early 20's. It starts with the hopeful little guy stepping out of the boat and beginning as a simple shoe polish boy and ending up fat and rich in front of his shoe empire....This was a rare occasion where I got to work on some (minor) characters that did not have to fit in terms of style into the actual look and feel of the animation. The exception is the charcoaled remains of Kika and Bob after opting for the wrong option, again....
Ice characters
These character sketches and backgrounds were made for a popular ice cream company to enhance their site and attract a younger audience. The idea was to have several 'islands' inhabited by different ice cream characters and would be an opportunity to play and learn about the different flavors. Unfortunately the ad agency that asked me to develop these concept sketches was rather uncooperative and in the end it did not work out, so I post these just to remind myself how cool it would have been to see it all animated....
For Caroline Ellerbeck I have made a small animation test (only the left elephants are animated so far), based on her book 'Yndee', the name given to a baby elephant born at the Amsterdam Zoo.
Sooo Hungry....
Mmmmmhh, well, yeah,...some are luckier than others, and if you can have burritos than you are very fortunate indeed....
Here we go again....
When will we ever learn??? by becoming Prime Minister yet again for the third time Berlusconi, which already possess the majority of private Tv stations will now also have indirect domain over state owned Tv, that means he is going to control over 90% of Italy's media. Having said that the blame for this disaster lays at the feet of the majority of the voters which through small mindedness and ignorance have opted for the utopia of easy wealth, something which Berlusconi has accumulated in years of muddy business deals and corruption...we are royally f****d!!
The Choo Choo train
Here is the almost final design: after some adjustment to fit the tee I had to 'edit' the design and remove some extra rails and landscape, also the 'rollator' had to go...
