ProfessionalWhy did you make this work:
This is the MINI Christmas campaign, based on Chris Rea's iconic song 'Driving home for Christmas'.
If this xmas tube has become quite iconic, we don’t necessarily know much about it — or its very close connection to MINI.
Rea actually wrote this song in his Mini, being stuck with his wife in the traffic on a xmas eve of 1978.
This is a xmas visual tale revealing this lovely story.
How was the illustration used: How was the illustration used? Those illustration were used for the Global Christmas campaign for MINI, encouraging people to share their own xmas/mini stories. It might be still live and accessible o
How did you make this work: To realize this series I sketch the story just like a comic and tried to take a third person point of view and keep the 1978 Mini visible at all time, but with different presences.
I kept an overall blue and cold palette to make the car stands out organically.
