VIRTUAL EVENT CARICATURES AND VIRTUAL MEETING CARICATURES
Virtual events and meetings have become a way of life and a great way to conduct business meetings or celebrations while we are asked to remain distant.
We have a way to bring the entertainment to you safely in the meantime. We’ve been providing live virtual caricatures via Zoom, Skype and Google Classrooms for parties, weddings, corporate meetings and virtual events. We share our screen so you and your guests are able to see the drawings take form. We will gladly draw a group session, or book individual time slots for private sessions with us.
Great for employee morale boosts and appreciation for those who have adapted to a new way of working and great student orientation or team building virtual events.
STUDIO CARICATURE ILLUSTRATIONS FROM PHOTO
We start with your photos and theme. The first draft you will receive will be to confirm likeness of person. After approved, we add the additional theme, design, wording and logo elements. You will have a chance to proof, comment and request changes on the draft stage. Upon receiving your changes, we redraw the image according to your feedback. We repeat these steps in two rounds of changes. Additional changes applicable for any changes made after the approval of the final illustration
Once you are happy with the rough draft we produce the complete artwork with crisp lines and vibrant colours. Voila. Your first experience as an art director was a success!

For a flat $50 per hour you will basically rent an illustrator. You will consult with one of our experienced illustrators via a virtual meeting and the illustrator will create what you want. It can be a caricature, a portrait, a full body drawing, a story board of a film idea you have, a family tree image, a cover illustration for a book you have written, a tattoo in memory of a friend or relative.
