Termite Week

ANIMATED ILLUSTRATIONS WITH A SENSE OF HUMOR

Client | Cook's Pest Control

Created | March 2018

Project Duties | Illustration, Animation

A satire of 'Shark Week', the client wanted their 'Termite Week' illustrations to be bright, colorful, fun, and playful. I was provided with five different termite personalities and illustrations created the previous year by the client. They wanted a fresh start visually, and I was instructed to completely refresh the illustrations, but to work within the content confines provided.

Campaign Results

In one week, the videos were watched a combined 9800 plus times, and had over 170 social interactions on the original posts. (Social interactions include likes, comments, and shares.)

All of my illustration projects begin with a strong sketch foundation. In addition to illustration, the client also wanted simple looping animations. Therefore, I also pointed out the proposed animation for each illustration during this phase.
