- Why did you create this work?
For their new campaign, Marvis asked to create an animated advert and a 60-meter arch billboard in Milan Central Station. The theme was "Marvel Your Routine", and we had to show how Marvis toothpaste turns brushing teeth into something unexpected and extraordinary. The colourfulness of singer queer icon Freddy Mercury inspired the animation. At the same time, René Magritte inspired the billboard. - How were your illustrations used?
The illustrations and animations were used on social media platforms to promote the campaign. Further, the illustrations were used on billboards in Milan and worldwide. - What materials and techniques did you use?
The team and I used digital tablets and Adobe Cloud software such as Animate, After Effects and Photoshop to create the animation and illustrations. - Was this project commissioned?
