DOCUMENTARY FILM ILLUSTRATIONS
These illustrations supplement interview footage with emotionally powerful content in a way only drawing and painting can. Together with the films' directors, producers and animators, I interpret dialogue from interview footage to create concepts for images, rough drafts, and final artwork based on revision notes.
