Here is the artwork for my pitch to 4mations on wednesday.They wanted people to come up with a mini series, one-off viral or a game.I decided to pitch for a viral commission from Channel 4 which they will fund £500-£1,000 pounds to make it.It had to be between 15-90 seconds and be funny.My viral concept shows all the animals in the woods turning up to see a football match between the rabbits and foxes.The whole joke to it was to have these animals reflecting real life situations in football.This would be highlighted at the end when the message “Release your inner animal…..play the game!”.They also wanted at least one piece of artwork to be emailed with the script for the pitch so here are the pieces of artwork I’m sending with the script:

Here are the pages from the booklet I made for the degree show that we had in Soho not so long ago.It was a good night.I made loads of contacts and as well as the Disney scheme I am also pitching an idea to 4mations (which the artwork will be up for soon),another film pitch for channel 4 and animateTV on the 30th July and pitching an idea with my friend Ryan for a children’s show to HIT Entertainment when we have developed it a bit more.They even gave us business cards to get in contact with them so I am pretty excited with what is happening at the moment.Anyways here is the booklet pages:

Below are some screenshots from Mark and mine’s final year film.It is now completed and can be found in my section on here.It’s taken a year but I am very pleased with the final film and think that Mark’s animation and my computer skills have really worked well together.The film can be seen by those involved with the animation industry in Soho,London on Thursday 19th June 2008 at 5pm onwards.For more details about the show,go to http://www.farnhamanimation.co.uk/

Also I will be posting up the poster for the film which I am currently making for the show on Thursday as well as the pages from a special booklet for the film I am making as well.My portfolio pages will be uploaded soon as well as the artwork and sketches I am producing for a competition in Disney’s consumer products graduate artist’s scheme in which I could be employed at the Disney’s offices up in London for a year if I win.
