Let's Meet Our Bootcamp Bundle Speakers!
Decoding the Brief: Visual Language for Illustrators w/ Christopher De Lorenzo
Live Class: Thursday 20th March @ 6pm GMT
With a style derived from his background as a graphic designer where he started out designing logos and communicating messages, Boston based illustrator Christopher De Lorenzo creates drawings that find a certain poetry and balance in their form and shape.
His illustrations have a clean-lined, firm aesthetic, but the content itself holds a cheekiness that keeps up-to-the-minute brands such as Mr Porter, Converse, Google, and Tiffany & Co. eager to work with him. As clean and crisp as his flowing line drawings are, they are underpinned with tiny yet intentional imperfections, making them approachable and relevant to a wide range of clients and projects.
Chris will present his Masterclass: Decoding the Brief: Visual Language for Illustrators on Thursday 20th March focused on decoding client briefs and how to master your own visual language to sell into clients with smaller budgets. Registration opens soon!
A link to register for the live class will be sent out on Thursday 13th March.

Animating Brand Stories with Character w/ Con McHugh
Live Class: Thursday 1st May @ 10.30am BST (GMT+1)
Con McHugh is an animator and illustrator based in Bristol who has built a reputation for his distinctive analogue-inspired, looping animations characterised by hand-drawn imperfections and a rhythm that feels almost musical. In a digital world that strives for polished perfection, his work is refreshingly tactile, celebrating simplicity and the charm of imperfection.
In his home studio in Bristol, Con deliberately avoids a perfectly curated workspace, instead opting for something a little messier—a reflection of his creative process. A bit of chaos balances out the discipline of design, bringing a looseness into his animation which defines is now-iconic style.
For his upcoming masterclass Animating Brand Stories with Character, Con will unpack his inventive creative process and share simple animation techniques that you can try at home to inject personality and character into your practice. Not to be missed!
