MTV VIRUS - D & AD AWARDS 2008

DAN STONEMAN MTV VIRUS BEATBOX

This animation was created for the D & AD Student Awards 2008 in response to the MTV Virus Brief.

Using the MTV Channel Characters (Designed by 'This is Real Art') I completely recreated the visual components using Photoshop, illustrator, Flash and After Effects.

The sound track and samples are my own put together using a complex series of layers in Reason, Fruity Loops, Audacity and Garage Band.

The idea is that the virus is represented via the various sounds of illness from each character. The first character (MTV TWO) has the virus and sneezes onto the next character (MTV DANCE) which sets of a contagious musical rhythm, hopefully appealing to MTV's heavily musical fan base.

Fingers crossed for the competition, I hope you all like it..
