Will Hung Lives On!

by josh

These are two posters I finished a while back. This first one is for a travel insurance company. The concept that they wanted to convey is sort of vague....but basically they wanted to show the cycle of a problem resolution. I had a couple of sketches that showed a "cycle". In the end, the client ended up picking the easier solution. I drew myself in here somewhere with Nathan's patented Will Hung pose :)

I should also mention that this image was originally an idea for a personal piece which I sold recently at a group show here in LA. I'm not sure if that's considered cheating...but oh well.



This is for a "No Smoking" campaign. I'm not sure if anyone has seen the film "Thank You For Smoking"...but this is a similar idea, to stop smoking product placements in Hollywood films. I sent the agency that first idea and they sort of changed the colors around to come up with the blue (faux printed) version at the bottom.

Does that mean I get a cut of the money?

I've been noodling around your site and have fallen in love. You all seem to have a very fluid style.

Amazing work Josh! I don't feel that you could steal from yourself and consider it a bad thing. Rock on!
