After tweeting about my Amish outfit at work (keeping the creative tech team looking fresh as always) I found myself blogged about as a Chloe Sevigney lookalike. Much more fittingly, I ended up being critiqued on Amish or Hipster?

As part of the Guardian Book Swap Season, I have written a series of tweeted clues to find signed books hidden around the UK.

On Tour with Chad Valley

Extracts from On Tour With Chad Valley on my Do It Like Delia blog.

Chad Valley

Since I have been back in Oxford, I have been helping my boyfriend Hugo Manuel promote his new solo project Chad Valley. With wide-spread hype already accumulating from the likes of Pitchfork, The Guardian and Vice it looks like exciting times ahead. I have edited a set of visuals which play with the notion of being above and below water and are prejected behind Hugo on stage. You can see edited versions here:

The Snowman Screening

As an early Christmas treat, I organised my mum to come into to W+K to talk about the animated film The Snowman which she worked on.

It even started to snow.

I have been selected in the final 12 out of 200 applicants to be part of W+K Platform.

“Platform is a future creative talent platform, which will hire, teach and work with a diverse mix of people, from around the world. We will recruit talent from the arts, sciences and technology backgrounds who will work together to solve business problems through creative solutions.”

W+K Platform Entry

The brief was to make a short film answering the following questions. Who are you? What inspires you? What are your obsessions in life? What is your greatest regret? What your guilty pleasure?  ‘I have answered the questions using songs by Joni Mitchell. She a huge influence on me and I liked the idea of turning this around and using her lyrics to express myself.

Dougal Wilson and Orange Rockcorp

Orange Rockcorp worked together with Fallon and Blink Productions to create a 60 second human animation. I assisted the brilliant Director Dougal Wilson editing 1000 people into a 60 second sequence.

We Have Band Music Video

‘It took three days and over 6,000 frames of footage for David to animate his beautiful facepaint designs on the band, relying on their infinite, good-natured patience – they basically had to lie still for three days. Plus he had the help of highly regarded mother-and-daughter animation team Joanna and Katie Anne Harrison.’

Talk Talk Commercial

Here you can see how they used my animated shorts as reference. Each animation consisted of simple hand drawn frames as they were reproduced with LEDS.

Kayne’s Brain

..drawn for Kid Cudi’s video, directed by Nez at Blink Productions.

“To ensure such complicated and time-consuming animations were pulled off to a high enough standard, Wilson employed a stellar pair of animators- Mother and daughter duo Joanna and Katie Anne Harrison. Joanna learned her trade on such classics as The Snowman and When The Wind Blows whilst Katie is an up-and-coming superhero of the design and illustration world.”

Example music video

I worked as an animator on Henry Scholfield’s latest video for the Rapper Example. Here you can see the stills from my animated beach sequence where it sequences between live action and animation.

Blueprint Magazine

I interned at Blueprint Magazine working under their brilliant Art Director Patrick Myles. There I designed the new ‘Comment’ title on the Blueprint website.

Creative Review

I was selected by Creative Review in The Crop of Graduates 2008.

“This slightly disturbing portrait of Amy Winehouse is part of a series by Harrison on female celebrity (other portraits included Britney Spears, below left, and Jordan). “I had become so frustrated with the pointless glamorisation of these women, I wanted to show the destruction that they were actually facing within their own lives,” she says. “As I researched them I began to sympathise with them. [The image asks] is this what we have done to her and how much do we really care? “I had originally projected them as 20 foot drawings,” she explains, “but I ended up painting them in an effort to make something more grotesque. This was inspired by my tutor, Andrew Hall, who told me to ‘Do something really weird at university before you become constrained by the commercial world.”

Celebrities

As part of a series on female Celebrities including Britney and Jordan, this portrait of Amy Winehouse portrays her utter self destruction.
