jumping bean
this is one from the vaults..from 1995 to 2000 i was nesting at Richard Purdum Productions here in london,
animating and designing commercials etc,,drinking a lot of tea and getting passed strange books and cds from a mr small..(more on that fellow later..)
tiger aspect productions asked the studio to come up with character concepts for the top secret mr-bean animated show they were developing at that time.
these were a few of my designs..sort of an odd upa thing..
i continued working on commercials when this project was in the studio,but was asked to animate the dancing bean for the end credits 30 sec-one shot-fun to do.
this scene is in the animation section of my site-

Wow, these are terrific! What a great character to design, Atkinson has such an expressive face.
It's all polygons! I assure you. Nurbs are for Nerds. Don't know the f**k what I'm talking about.
Hello to you Gary! I don't know if you will remember me (Arna) but in 2001 spring I was at Purdums storyboarding on Bean and sat in the same room as Alan Kerswell for six weeks. Please say hello to Alan K next time you see him! We will come back and visit your delightful blog again soon. Cheers from Canada!
