Aardman publicity

Another article about my arrival at Aardman, sent to me by a friend.

Pages Jaunes Competition

This my entry to the Eyeka competition for 'Pages Jaunes'. The brief was to create a 30s commercial for the French equivalent of the Yellow Pages, on a track from Persephone's Bees and using and (or not) the brand character of the brand which is a cave man. If you like it, please register and vote, it only takes a minute - so I might win a prize! I will be very grateful.

Frigou goes to Bristol

I'm very excited - and a little bewildered - to announce that I'm going to be represented by Aardman Animations for commercials from now on.
There is an article about this here
I will try my best to produce work that will not look ridiculous next to that of Tim Ruffle, Arthur Cox, Matt Walker or Sam Morrison, who I'm a big fan of.

I worked on the trailer of the Tate and Aardman Movie Project, which is much talked about this morning in the press.
Directed by the amazing Sarah Cox who I was lucky to work with for a little while before joing Tandemfilms, the project has been kept secret for a while... I helped design the character from Sarah's sketches and animated it with the help of brilliant Ginny Robertson. A guardian journalist seems to not quite get the idea - I think it's a brilliant initiative and I hope I'll be involved again.

Beautiful Place


A small clip I animated, inspired by a long and difficult flat hunt in London...

Kids aren't that smart



Some illustrations to go with the campaign for CalciYum, that New Zealand drink.
I need to add there that I also did the voice over for some of the adds (I can do a 9 years old girl sneezing pretty well)
Quelques illustrations réalisées pour aller avec la campagne Calci Yum, une boisson pour enfants Néo-Zélandaise.
J'ai fait quelques unes des voix de ces spots télé (l'éternuement, c'est moi.)

Kids aren't that smart







Some designs I did for a New Zealand drink called CalciYum. The ads have been directed by Daniel Greaves at Tandemfilms, and animated by lots of talented animators including Jeroen Jaspaert.
