CHARACTERS
Developing characters for animation and licensing is a surprisingly interesting process, but requires certain skills. I create both characters (descriptions) and also work with artists on character images (illustrations). The character must be unique, must correspond to the spirit of the project, its own nature, must be on the same wavelength with the audience.
I have 10 years of experience in the industry, we create and adapt characters of any difficulty level and for any audience - from 0+ to teenagers, adults, animation characters, and mascots for sporting events.
STYLE GUIDES
My team specializes in creating style guides for the animated series and IP for children and teenagers. The work includes the creation of graphic elements (icons, patterns, tecture, etc.), package templates, selection of fonts, palettes, and examples of concept products with the created style.
Also, we help localize the existing guides for the new market, to adapt characters for licensing and printing (creating a vector version for example). This is a long and time consuming process that requires the participation of many experts, but it is necessary for your brand to become profitable, and appearing on clothing, stationery and souvenirs.
LICENSING DESIGN
Having the experience of creating style guides from zero, I perfectly understand how to work with style guides, created by other studios. Some designers have obstacles to creating an original packaging design with all limitations of licensed brand guides, which also leads to problems with the design approval with the right holders.
If you have difficulties of this sort with the design, if you need to estimate how your product will look with any licensing IP, or if you just need a cool package or product - call us. We did design with Angry Birds, Angry Birds Movie, Peppa Pig, Tom & Jerry, Looney Tunes, Batman, Superman, Hello Kitty and many others.
SCRIPT BIBLES
Creating a story for the series is the first step to the success of the project. About what is the show? About who will be the story? Why it will be interesting for children? What will happen in the episodes? What is the original, unique idea?
To these questions, my creative team will respond. We will help you write a Script Bible, as well as draw and visualize the characters and concept art for the project, and to tell you how to adapt the project for different media platforms.
