<div style="text-align: center;">
Well...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here we are again. The old, 'I've neglected my blog for so long' apology post! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
No apology here! Just a promise to try to make more time for personal design and posting! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have also started a <a href="http://gillianimation.tumblr.com/">tumblr</a> which has *some* more new pieces. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A quick update on what I have been doing with the past many months. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
First, MR BEAN! I was Art Directing on the 2nd Animated Series for just over a year through 2014/15. The whole series is finished now and currently airing on TV around the world! Also available on DVD! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Second, I am currently doing a simliar role on another TV series for Netflix/CBBC called the Kazoops! It is still in productions so I can't show anything yet :( but trust me, it's super cute! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Third, I had a short time working on my first feature film for Sony Pictures Animation. Obvs, top secret, defo can't show you anything from that but it was great fun and bit of a dream come true! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hopefully 2016 brings every more wonderful work, hopefully more personal stuff than professional. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
To continue from my last post about the Nike commercial, The Last Game, I found out last week that the Nike store on Oxford Circus has larger than life models of the characters I designed for the commercial instore! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The company that are responsible for the wonderful work are <i><a href="http://www.millingtonassociates.com/default.aspx">Millington Associates</a> </i>and you can view the work they did for Nike on their website along with all the other great projects theyve done. </div>

Pretty exciting! At the end of last year, I got to work on the character designs for the new Nike commercial that's just been released and I've been given the OK to share the designs with you lovely people! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
You might recognise some of the characters here but there's also some other designs and characters that didn't make it into the final film. </div>

It was a lot of fun to work on, as it's not my usual style. Tough work drawing muscly men all day but I guess someone's gotta do it *sigh*</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Enjoy! </div>

I saw this guy on a holiday in Budapest. We were in a local Hungarian etterem and this dude was supplying the entertainment. He may have been the fattest man I have ever seen with my own eyeballs but damn he could play that gee-tar. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Aside from the good old exercise, eat less crap and be a better person, what new year's resolutions have you set for yourself? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's probably pretty obvious from this post that one of mine was to go back to life drawing at least every other week. So on the first Monday of the new year, there I was in my old life drawing class! It was great. It's kind of like when you go to the gym after months on sitting on your ass doing nothing. It was a struggle to go after work but you feel better for doing it afterwards. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
If you saw my previous blog post, you'll know that I started a new job and although it's great I won't be designing characters very much so another promise I've made to myself for the new year is to keep up the personal projects which I've also linked with ANOTHER resolution to read at least a book a month. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So watch this space for some literary inspired character designs! Hopefully...</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hello everyone! Apologies for the silence since CTNX but I'm sure you're all in the same boat that it has just been crazy busy on the run up to Christmas. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I stupidly decided to make all my Christmas presents...so between that and a new job I've have no time to post anything new...actually, no time to even draw something new! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yes! New job! I'm now working on the new Mr Bean: The Animated Series as an Art Director for all of 2014. It's gonna be tough but a great learning experience and hopefully I'll be even more motivated to keep up the character design in my spare time since I won't have a chance to do it at work. </div>

<span style="font: 13.0px Arial;">I put this book together in preparation for CTNX back in November and luckily it seemed to go down pretty well. I managed to sell all the books I had taken with me (aside from the ones I used for swapsies!). </span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
Over the last couple of weeks I was back at my old University in Bournemouth to teach the 2nd years animation students a bit about my approach to character design. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vhnGA9Itdbo/UnYgT8ovaMI/AAAAAAAAGPM/4VQeZr92tdg/s1600/Screen+Shot+2013-11-03+at+10.05.49.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="318" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vhnGA9Itdbo/UnYgT8ovaMI/AAAAAAAAGPM/4VQeZr92tdg/s320/Screen+Shot+2013-11-03+at+10.05.49.png" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We begun with generated a bunch of random types of characters and hobbies. Together we came up with a Little Samurai Girl and an Old Lady Baseball Player. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I showed them how to do quick silhouetted thumbnails, flesh out a favourite silhouette, pose out the character, explore expressions and squash and stretch in the face and turnarounds. </div>

And in other news, I'm working on a very exciting project with Passion Pictures which I don't think I can tell you too much about yet..but it will be revealed in 2014!</div>

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Over the summer, I have been taking Nate Wragg's second character design course on CGMA and it's been brilliant! I highly recommend it to anyone interested in filling up their portfolio to a more professional standard and learning a new approach to going through the steps involved in character design and model packs. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The course takes you through 8 weeks with one character, exploring poses, facial expressions, turnarounds, story moments and a hero pose. In addition, Nate also gives you feed back to each assignment and 1 hour each week for a live Q&A where he answers pretty much anything you ask him (anything animation related of course!) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The character I came up with was a big rugged fisherman who had a secret passion for theatre performance. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Below is a bunch of sketches I went through on the course. I will be adding all the final work to my portfolio soon, so stay tuned! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And good luck if you choose to take either of his courses!</div>

About a year ago, my lovely friend <i>Drew Roper</i> from <i>Yamination Studios</i> kindly offered for me the opportunity to design the characters for his upcoming stop-motion short, <i>At-Issue. </i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Being the super talent that he is, Drew won the <i>Sky Futures Fund</i> prize and has been working away on making his ideas materialise into a real stop motion film. Not an easy task, Im sure you know. He has been amazing at bringing together a whole bunch of talent and bringing Bartholomew to life! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
You can view a short video about what he has done so far on the Sky Arts website <a href="http://skyarts.sky.com/futures-fund/drew-roper-video">HERE</a>. <i> </i>Definitely worth the watch!<i> </i>What a fantastic achievement and he's not even finished yet! I cannot wait to see the film piece. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Below are some exploratory poses to find his character, early colour ideas, expressions and secondary character designs. They were done over a year ago but I'm still quite happy with them. I guess that's thanks to Drew's creation of a believable character</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
This week I was lucky enough to spend my time in Paris, at the Jardin des Plantes Zoo, with a group of talented artists, as we were brought together to learn from animal master, <a href="http://joeweatherly.com/">Joe Weatherly</a>. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was a challenging week! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We had to strip back our animal drawing to the fundamentals, the structure, perpective, weight. All those important things that I sometimes forget about because I'm too keen to make a character design out of them. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here's a bunch of sketches from the week. First I've showed the monkeys I drew, to compare how I was drawing before to how I was drawing by the end of the week (and I managed to sneak a bit of character in there too...) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We also spent a day at the Palaeontology Museum, studying skeletons, which helped the zoo drawing so much! Get down to your local bone museum and do a few hours! It'll help you loads!</div>

It's been a little while since I've blogged anything cause I have been stuck in a bit of a drawing rut. AND THEN I fractured my elbow when I fell off my longboard like a chump! So the last 2 weeks Ive been catching up on TV and being bored outta my mind! Luckily, it wasnt my drawing arm I injured, and I was able to sketch some. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I downloaded a trail version of Sketchbook Pro, which I've quite enjoyed and might make the switch to that program instead. What do you guys think of it?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
To get drawing again, I just wanted to bust out a bunch of sketches around a theme, so I used animals. I really recommend this if you ever feel like I did/do. Drawing 26 things isn't too big a feat but it's enough to clear those sketching and designing cobwebs! </div>

After sketching for the A-Z of animals, I went on my first big day out alone, in a sling to London Zoo and it had completely freed me up from the last time I'd been there. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It has also been a lovely warm up to an animal drawing workshop I will be taking in Paris next week with the legendary animal artist and teacher, <a href="http://joeweatherly.com/">Joe Weatherly</a>. I can't wait to compare these sketches with the sketches on my final day learning with Joe. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I find it so difficult to get character into my animal sketches like I do when I draw people. If you have any tips or resources that might help, please comment and let me know! </div>
