Work Eimertoon - Small Business

Here's another toon that I just created which will be planted in an online Small Business magazine. Always nice to shake out the spider-webs and actually produce something that's usable for a client.

Eimertoons - Small Business Agent Cartoon

I've been slipping.

In reading. In pushing my creative chops outside of work. In (gulp!) cartooning.

I always said, if I gave up on doodling on sketchbooks and reading comic books then I've completely grown up and transformed into an old man. Never, I say. NEVER!

Which is why it was so nice that a designer approached me last week to create a cartoon for one of our external customer newsletters, which is supposed to accompany a crossword puzzle.

Truth be told, I was a little rusty. And I suck at drawing women. But, it all came back to me. And, the photoshop skills kicked in. Hell, I was even able to incorporate a little vector, fine-line action via Illustrator. This is by no means my best stuff. But it felt nice getting back on the horse again.

I have a poster-sized piece down in my basement that needs some ink applied to it. It's on my to-complete list for 2018. And this little piece just got my creative mojo humming.

Eimertoons - Flo's Fun Land Coloring Book Page

Soooo, since adult coloring books are all the rage, one of our senior art directors had a brilliant idea to create a Progressive-Themed Adult Coloring book to sell to our more than 26,000 employees via our merchandise site.

She reached out to all of the designers (and myself) to create this one-of-a-kind art. Of course, I threw my hat into the ring. I like a good cartooning challenge.

There were only three rules, it had to (1) Be Fun, (2) Be Progressive, and (3) Be Easy To Color.

For a couple weeks, I couldn't think of anything. I was getting depressed. No ideas were seeping into my noggin.

Then, one weekend, I was organizing our basement and came across one of our kid's children's books called Tickets to Ride, An Alphabetic Amusement created by Mark Rogalski.

I started shuffling through the pages and came across the image near the back of the page where the entire park comes together:

Then, I got an idea. I got an awfully creative, fun idea ...

FLO'S FUNLAND!

Eimertoons - Wide Range of Customers

Creating an animation for a work project and put this together ... each of the images are supposed to pop up in succession as the VO says: "...Appeal to a wide range of customers..."

This will only take up approximately four seconds in the video, but it took me about three hours from start to finish ... and that's not counting post-production animation.
