Andrew Archer / Daytona 500 / FOX Sports
We are proud to reveal Andrew Archer's most recent animation collaboration with FOX Sports.
Andrew’s bold, dynamic illustration style has always paired well with sports, last year attracting the attention of Formula E who commissioned him to create illustrations for their worldwide OOH and on-site marketing campaign. The start of this year has lead to another racing-related project, this time with FOX Sports to promote the Daytona 500. In the TV spot, NASCAR racer Denny Hamlin reminisces about his childhood dream of winning the infamous track race, recounting a touching essay he wrote in second grade where he outlines in painstaking detail his imagined moment of success, and what is was like to achieve that ambition in 2016. Andrew worked to create the style frames and assets illustrating Hamlin’s childhood fantasy, and the resulting animation brings these vivid imaginings to life.

A Rich Rice Brand Re-design
We are pleased to share packaging illustrations by artist Webb Creative for Oriente, a premium rice brand out of Portugal. Webb Creative was brought on by Firecactus Creative Director John-Paul Hunter who led the brand’s redesign. Inside the V-shaped illustration, which is actually two grains of rice coming together, are Webb’s illustrations. Each rice variant has a different scene, depicting the fifth-generation owners and moments from the business’s history. As Hunter shared with Design Week: “That illustration needed to work hard, we wanted people to see something different every time.” A further dive into the meaning of each illustration can be found on the back of the pack.

Steven Heller on Peter Grundy (AKA Grundini)
Steven Heller, a member of the Art Director Hall of Fame since 1996 and author, co-author and editor of over 200 books on design covered Grundini in his latest article for the Daily Heller. Describing Peter, Steven wrote: " [he is] an exemplar of the commedia dell’arte style of data visualization, a maestro of transforming statistics into pictorial passion plays. Icons are his meat, and they are seasoned with wit and humor, color and conviviality. They brighten up the stage, the page and the screen. They scroll with a certain rock and roll."
