Ah February – the month of romance, love and passion. In an all too tenuous link we’ve decided to share three of our #NoBriefs throughout the month, chatting to our artists about creating work they love and especially the passion projects they create when there’s no client brief to stick to.
What is #NoBrief?
The #NoBrief series gives an ongoing look into our talented illustrators, animators, lettering and type artists’ minds – focusing on the work they create when they become their own client. Previous artists to have been featured are; Neil Stubbings, Design Lad and Alice Tye.
This time we’re shining a light on Barcelona-based studio, Niceshit – a directors collective of three curious minds – who create clever stories with a bold graphic style, putting storytelling and character design at the forefront of everything they do.
Commercially, they have recently created beautiful pieces of work for clients including Ketel One, Bose, MTV, Coca-Cola, Vodafone, Airbnb, Google & Primavera Sound.
How they find time to create anything outside of their busy workload is beyond us… but they do. Their latest short, ‘The Adventures of Olivier’ features bold graphics, 2d cel animation and a naughty little olive whose butt we just can’t get enough of (watch it to understand).
