ChitChatClick's Heather character design.

character D drawing FIN

I was recently commissioned to create promotional poster material for a student film from Bournemouth University (UK) called ChitChatClick. The character design shows how the actors real likeness is captured through modern 3D animated 'cartoon' features. I also looked at Jason Brooks 'Fashionista' drawings for style and exaggeration. I gave her a contemporary high street sense of fashion referencing brands from H&M to NEXT to Debenhams which best reflected Heathers's personality. She is the slimmest of the 4 ladies and the creepiest looking so I played along those qualities. Mobile phones play an integral role in the screenplay so a level of interaction with the accessory was critical, referencing HTC p3470 smartphone for an authentic look.

The story revolves around four modern women who communicate via mobile but when they finally
meet face to face, all is not as it seems and things turn for the worse! Its short but sweet.

Autographed art & meeting Bruce Lee's widow Linda Lee Cadwell.

So a couple of years ago I met Bruce Lee's widow Linda Lee Cadwell. This was a huge deal for me as Bruce Lee has been my idol since forever! So, naturally I brought along a piece of Bruce Lee inspired work for her to admire and sign. The poster is part of a graduate installation piece. Click the title above for a video link . Linda Lee Cadwell and her daughter Shannon Lee sign my poster! Click on the image for a deviantART link.  Me on the right, my brother Titus on the left and Linda Lee Cadwell.

After a brief conversation with my friend Jason Ng, who told me about his new designer clothing brand  u9ly Avenue  I told him about these designs and how I thought they would make cool T-shirts.
