American Idol

American Idol

The most watched show on TV is gonna kick start a new season next week (tonight and tomorrow night there is the selection of the remaining 6 of the 12 contestants running for the title this season), so I thought to share some of the work I did for last season show.

American Idol
As some of you know, during the result show every week they run a video/commercial of Ford with the Idols. One of the videos, last year, was about a comic artist (one of the idols) whose pages were coming alive, and the producers asked me to provide all the comic artwork that appears in that video. You can imagine my reaction when I heard that my artwork was going to air in prime time, on national television, seen by millions of Americans: very excited and also a bit scared ;)
Anyhow you can see the video here , on my website, and attached to this post you can see some of the artwork produced for the video (I did around 10 full pages of comics plus concept art and animations).

Cheers,
Francesco
