New from Sandra Suy

jelly hello! Sorry for the delay this morning!

This gorgeous new illustration is by our Spanish artist, Sandra Suy.

We absolutely love her artwork here; she creates some of the most elegant fashion images incorporating gentle lines, patches of complimentary colour and beautiful detail to small features – such as the rings in this piece.

We’d previously mentioned that she’s now opened an online shop of her printed artwork on etsy so, if you’re looking for that perfect gift for Christmas then check it out!!

 

Tony Wilson is our Winter Artist of the Month

Tony is one of our longest-established artists, based at the heart of jelly. He joined our studio as a visualiser for Three Blind Mice around 12 years ago, before transgressing to the brighter-side of finished illustration when jelly was born. With two decades of commercial illustration experience, it’s no wonder that he has developed into the most versatile and adaptable artist on our roster.

Challenge Tony!
We stand by our statement that Tony can develop any style on request. To prove this, we want you to send in a style which you have not seen in his portfolio! He’ll have until Friday to create the illustration and we’ll post them up on our Friday Fun blog! E-mail michaela@jellylondon.com with your requests!

Friday Fun: Hello You Creatives!

Good Morning and a Happy Friday!!

Today we wanted to dedicate our blog as a thank you to the Hello You Creative team.

Their blog helloyoucreatives.tumblr.com “is about getting to know each other, finding new things and general rants/discussions about being creative” and features some of the most random yet fascinating/hilarious/disgusting pieces of ‘creative’ work from all over the place.

The last few months has seen jelly and our artists featured on there! We love them so much we’d like everyone to check them out too!!

jelly Stop Motion by Matt Lloyd

Last week we were joined for some work experience by Matt Lloyd, an illustrator fresh out of Bath Spa Uni.
He really impressed us with his stop-motion work on Vimeo (click here to watch Hand Drawn Evolution) that we set him a challenge – to create one for jelly!
With only a few days and a light-box, Matt (with a little help from our in-house IT wizz-kid, Sam) created an 11-second stop-frame animation which we’re excited to now share with you.

Meet Angus, the Toy Tester Robot

This is Angus. Hello!
Angus is a cute toy testing robot that lives in the fantasy world.

Our fantastic Poked Studio designed him for the latest Argos Christmas Adverts.

Poked’s 2D and 3D designs were used as reference to create the animated advert, which will be played on CITV over the Christmas period.

So, keep a look out!

Let’s start with something… a bit CHEESY!

This campaign is live across the US at the moment!
Neil Duerden created this as a major style shift for Kraft to link their cracker-like products with the Super Bowl.
As you can see, the final version was a clear and precise execution of the brief (unlike Neil’s usual work, created to a depth of illustration seldom seen)… cheesetastic!

Friday Fun: A Day in the Life of…

A week or so ago we kept a brief photo-diary of our times in the jelly office.

(This was around Halloween so may explain SOME of the madness you’re about to witness)

Anyway, if you fancy having a peruse at our random toys and our professional work board, please click on the image and have a look!

Latest illustrations for The Royal British Legion

With today being the 11th day of the 11th month – AKA Remembrance Day in the UK – we thought it was appropriate to show you our latest illustrative work for The Royal British Legion.

The RBL are the charity which support our members of the British Armed Forces and their families through their yearly Poppy Campaign.

This year they’ve joined the online networking world with their own blog/live website: Legion Live

The PR Agency Launch approached us back in August for some creative ideas and illustration work by our fantastic illustrator Steve Scott.

If you’d like to see more, please go to legionlive.org.uk.

Don’t forget to join the nation in a two minute silence at 11 am!

Different for Better’s Sake

Publicis London recently approached Alison Carmichael to help out with their new Poster Campaign for the new Renault Megane.

Alison worked closely with the Art director and Design department at the Agency to develp a ‘blueprint’ style of lettering which reflected the styling details on the car – she also illustrated the little architectural details on the layout and generally made the whole thing go with a va-va-voom.

Friday Fun II: We have David Kleinman!

We had a minute of madness….

(No Davids were harmed in the production of this film)
