For this fun assignment, PartyPOW! a new, all-natural energy supplement, tasked me with the design of their company logo and CI as well as several character designs and illustrations and also the packaging design itself.

The concept was to have a fun crowd waiting outside a happening club on the red carpet. The skyline of a big city in a nondescript country with an evening sky in the background. Everybody is in a good mood. The main character arrvives with his charming lady friends and the security guys recognize him immediately and let him through with a big smile. He is evidently a PartyPOW! party animal.

The illustration was created in SketchbookPro6 (roughs) and Adobe Illustrator CS5 for final vector art using a Cintiq21UX. A video about the making of this pack is also featured on the Wacom.com homepage, where I am a featured artist.

More packs will be added for special events and themes such as Spring Break, Snowboarding, Beach Parties etc. Hopefully after a while there will be a nice range of fun and original packages to collect.

I also had the pleasure of creating some advertising commercials for PartyPOW which we did in Video Scribing Whiteboard Animation. You can see them here and here.

In this case I went with a brushed steel “cool” look. For people who don’t crack under pressure.

You know those really cool marketing videos you have seen on YouTube and at trade shows and in commercials? The ones with the hand that draws while the voice talks?
Drawings appear and continue on and lead to the next drawing and they explain your product or your concept in a way that would be very hard to do, even using much more complicated and expensive methods. These videos are called ‘whiteboard animations’ and they have been proven to be very popular and also very effective in grabbing and keeping the viewer’s attention.

I can help you with and create everything for you, from: Concept/Idea, Storyboard, Illustrations (in various styles), Sound and final HD Video with moving drawing hand.

My name is Ian Marsden and I am an internationally published illustrator and cartoonist and I have had the great pleasure to work on some high profile projects (About Me) and create artwork for some big name clients. Please have a look at the many different art styles I work in, each one could be applied to a white board animation as well. The range could be from serious and classy to funny and silly, depending on your needs and desired mood of the video.

For the elements that are not created in house I work with industry leading partners whose work samples will blow your socks off.

For this project a character needed to be designed to symbolize the correctly equipped and dressed employee, who knows and adheres to the correct procedures and work safety rules.
“Oskar” was born.

A series of work-safety related illustrations was also created, mostly depicting a more unfortunate situation as in a “How not to do it” scenario. The illustrations needed to be clear without the use of any language.

The artwork was created as vector art in Adobe Illustrator CS5.
