Illustration Advertising Research | Illustration

As a fifth research seminar, as a group, was the topic of advertising. We were required to find the any adverts for products, food, beauty, etc., that may be seen on TV, newspaper, magazine and billboard. On these covers, designs and animations that are designed by the illustrators so we were to find the illustrators, and also find who commissioned these illustrators.
I considered that this may be a difficult topic to explore. So I researched the adverts from the Internet and watched TV, to spot some adverts. Later, I came up two adverts with illustrators, which were Maly Siri and Yulia Brodskaya.
Maly Siri had been chosen by the English fashion designer, Vivienne Westwood. Westwood advertised her three Alice perfumes in women’s magazines, and appeared in London City on billboards and bus posters. Maly is a French illustrator, her drawings and illustrations are pin-up girls, her works beautiful vintage drawings. Maly was commissioned to use her pin-up girl illustrations along with three Alice perfume products. I found Alice perfume advertisement in magazines mostly, and Westwood even expanded her advertisement into something different that I wouldn’t have thought of, on London taxi banner/poster campaign.
I found Yulia’s tv advertisement on Youtube, even though it was not been seen on TV in United Kingdom. She is a Russian illustrator, her works are handmade paper illustrations. This TV advertisement was for Coin which was a leading department in Italy. So she was commissioned to create the main visual for a Christmas advertisement campaign based around the headline ‘Christmas in Wonderland’ with visual mention of fairy tales and a magical world.

When my group got together, Lowri came up with the idea of having A3 pages of artist’s/illustrator’s work projects. So I chose to use Yulia Broadskaya’s projects for the presentation.
After hearing the other three group’s presentations, I thought Rachel’s finding on Twinings adverts and product designs are interesting as she had found further examples of illustrations of product designs that have not seen before. Then, what made me realised that there wasn’t many illustrations being seen on TV adverts than in magazines. It was rather disappointing to find that there do not appear to be many interesting illustrations for their TV adverts.

The Monarch | Illustration

The Milkweed butterfly, also in another name of the Monarch butterfly, inspired me when I watched BBC's Spy in the Wild Series 2 in February. In episode 2 "The North", in this scene located the mountain in West Mexico, with the Spy Hummingbird capturing the place that's considered the world's most beautiful natural gathering, where the Monarch butterflies hibernated during the winter. It was Spring, the Spy hummingbird flying around millions of butterflies resting on the oyamel fir trees (I just looked it up of what kind of tree because I can't remember what it was, hehe). When the sunshine on them, warmed their delicate wings, then started to fly. And when they fly, it was absolutely spectacular, all orange and flow through the trees. I imagined myself in there, underneath them and watching them as they migrate to North. I felt calm and delight thinking about it, it was awe-inspiring. Being called the Milkweed butterfly is because they feed on ...

Bloom Wildly | Illustration

Image
It's nearly the end of May, the weather for the last week of the month has been sun shining and over 22c of temperature, such lovely weather. So yesterday, I have been painting the dog rose flowers, that just blossomed nearly 2 weeks ago! Right now they're blooming quite wildly in my home garden and the front! This bush even grows over the tree, makes it so enchanting it's like in a magical summer garden. And with the wall, this can hang further that I can go underneath it for some shade. This one is new from the front as it hasn't grown there before, so it's the first time seeing this. And it's already climbing up the birch tree! It looks nice to look at through the window, where I work on some arts, plus good for some inspirations to illustrate! Whilst I was painting, I did another timelapse video on this. Seems I find the time-lapse illustrating very fascinating and satisfying, you can see the process in fast speed, rather than the normal speed that'll t...
