Top kid’s book illustrator debuts on the small screen.
Father Christmas should be bringing my three sons the complete works of Oliver Jeffers for Christmas (if they can manage to behave). Fingers crossed, as I can’t wait to read them.
Jeffers, who hails from Northern Ireland but now resides in New York, is an artist and illustrator who is best known for his kids books (and lots of stuff for Starbucks).
On Christmas Eve, you can see the first airing of an animated version of one of his best loved stories, Lost and Found. The film, created by Studio AKA (of Lloyds TSB advert fame) is narrated by Jim Broadbent and can be seen on Channel 4 at 2.30pm. If you miss that, you can catch it again at 12.30pm on Boxing Day.
If you have kids, sit them in front of it. If you don’t have kids, Sky+ it until you do.
It’ll be a treat.
PS. You can take a look at our own illustration brands at Redseal and Chubbs.
This month sees the long awaited launch of S8080′s second digital illustration brand, ‘Chubbs’.
Developed through a demand for a funkier, harder edged style, ‘Chubbs’ seems destined to permanently park its wide load in the contemporary world of hi-end editorial and advertising illustration commissions.
Check out the latest work at www.chubbsstudio.com and be sure to add the site to your favourites to take advantage of the ‘downloads’ section, which features a series of wallpaper design for your computer desktop.
