Illustrator: Hellovon CGI: Taylor James “Having gone through the work on Taylor James’s site, I was really interested to see the step-by-step guides they give to some of their key projects,” says illustrator Von. “The juxtaposition between photos they were working on and the elements they were adding in when they weren’t fully rendered was what really caught my eye. It was this in-between stage in which I saw

echoes of the way I treat my images.” “Due to time constrictions, and both of our methods being quite timeconsuming, we had to work with an existing image of mine,” Von explains. “We went with a drawing of an Owl I did in 2008 because it already had a very angular, 3D feel which provided a great starting block for Taylor James to do their magic.” Taylor James’s creative lead Ed Taylor explains how they worked together on

thing that reflected our skills and abilities at Taylor James,” he explains. “Getting to the final image was a real challenge; how do you take a picture from one medium to another [Von works in pencil and ink] – to create something new and interesting, whilst still respecting the illustrative qualities of the original? The piece didn’t need to be stereotypically 3D, ie with highly convincing form and shading, and I certainly didn’t want it to be a

demonstration of any kind of gimmicks. Computer graphics has such limitless creative possibilities, there is no inherent ‘style’, so working in 3D you have to be able to adapt to every fresh challenge.” For Von, “it was an interesting journey, with quite a bit of to and fro, but ended up providing a lot of food for thought of where things could be taken in the future on other projects. I’m very happy with the final outcome. It’s always interesting to hear how

someone interprets your work and so to see how they do that with their own skills and technology is doubly so. With this kind of project there’s always a lurking danger that the image gets taken off on a massive tangent but the final piece has retained the essence of the original whilst taking it to a different arena, showcasing the talents of Taylor James in a great light.” hellovon.com taylorjames.com

the image: “We spent time experimenting in CG and myself and Von discussed ideas to develop the creative in a way that would stand out in 3D. We sent work-in-progress images and thoughts for the overall direction to Von regularly. For me achieving ‘success’ was about getting to a result that we both felt happy with, one that respected his work as inspiration. So I did my utmost to pay close attention to Von’s feedback whilst also creating some-
