Experian Ads by Kate Forrester

Kate Forrester produced a delightful set of fairytale illustrations with a difference, in this collaboration with BBH for Experian’s latest ad campaign. Read on below to hear Kate’s thoughts on the project and see more examples of her roughs, final artwork and the different platforms the ads have been used across.

I was delighted to be commissioned by advertising agency BBH to illustrate their new campaign for Experian, empowering customers to take control of their financial futures with their inspiring new brand platform.  The concept of the campaign uses classic nursery rhymes and fairy tales to encourage you to; ‘Better Your Story’ and improve your credit score. My job was to come up with a series of traditional, illustrated book covers – but with a twist!

The billboards went up all across London this week and have got lots of attention so far with their overall message of positivity and hope – just what we need in gloomy January!

Pastiche For Greater Anglia

Phosphor's Pastiche has been working on an exciting project for Greater Anglia trains, creating a festive illustration for 96-sheet, 48-sheet and 6-sheet posters.

The posters, which feature Somerset House's ice rink, Greater Anglia's red hare mascot and the caption 'Explore London & plug into the festive feeling' will be on display around Greater Anglia and doing the rounds on social media to encourage travel into the capital this festive season.

Even with multiple personalities, Phosphor's Pastiche artist was finding it hard to keep up with demand, so they now have a whole team of talented Pastiche illustrators taking commissions for your every need. Each is a specialist in their own field but they also work well as a team on joint projects.

So, you want Rembrandt’s ‘Christ on the Sea of Galilee’… By Thursday… Instead of Christ you want Meerkats… Mmm… Tricky one… What time on Thursday? Simples!

“I want a giant panda, called Vinnie… He’s riding a thoroughbred horse… In the style of George Stubbs… With background… Is Monday okay?” Sure!

“Any chance of a Leonardo by Tuesday?” – Just get in touch with Trina at Phosphor!

Pinocchio – Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre – Lisa Sheehan

Lisa was commissioned to create a key visual and animation for use by The Globe Theatre to promote its upcoming production of Pinocchio.

The illustration reflects the strong wood theme in the book deploying CG to simulate letterforms made of wood. A second more complex illustration and animation is also being created by Lisa regarding the production and these will reflect the unique nature of The Globe’s Elizabethan style pillared stage.
