Colman’s Gravy “Moo”

Fred Gambino recently worked with  Aardman Animations to develop the dancing bull character for the Colman's Instant Beef Gravy TV commercial.

It was quite a challenging brief to give the character the personality of a hot, steamy, hunky, male Latin-American dancer stuck inside the body of a real bull! Fred had to create the bull in several poses including Moon-walking and the Running Man. He rendered each pose using 3D software, Aardman then added texture and lighting to the digital model and returned it to Fred to add the special 'gravy' render.

Guardian Guide

Chris King embraced the opportunity to illustrate the cover for the Guardian Guide last month, featuring Ryan Gosling. It's an illustration he is quite proud of and a striking one too. Chris says "It initially started as a piece about his new film 'Drive' but became more about the actor and his life rather than just focusing on the film (hence the dog/Hollywood star in the “Grand Theft Auto” inspired backdrop). Thanks to Stephen Jenkins (art Director at the Guide) who steered the ship."
