"A Monster in Paris" early drawings
Back in 2006 Bibo asked me to join the "A Monster in Paris" concept team as production designer.
At this time Zébé was ending some great main chara designs, each of them bringing a bouncy attractive burlesque touch at Bibo's romantic 1910 comedy blending zests of terror silent films, crazy inventors, and showtime songs.
Michel Guillemin was sitting near Zébé, bringing the life of his drawings into fantastic modeled face shapes, hot ingredients was boiling and the smell of fine acting and great animation was pushing the teams...
800 kilometers away on the french riviera, Bibo was on stage with the storyboarders building heartfull sequences on the walls, timming and sounding with Pascal Chevé in their secret lab.
At this time I was in great 1910 immersion, looking at Paris roofs around me, flicking through thousands of dusty pages, falling in love with bowler hats and tin boxes, with Anouck, my detective, reporting surrealistic dialogues at the Paris police archives, dançing joyfully when she brought back an obscure illustrated "traité" about the hydrolic cable railway of Monmartre.
Hard to find time to draw with a CG team counting on you to achieve a 1 minute trailer for a film market but at this time I felt in love with the project as so many artists that came aboard in the next five years....

Honolulu how do you do?

Ce n'est pas le seul genre musical que j'apprécie, loin de là... mais je l'apprécie au plus au point, il faut dire ce qui est.
Monk....

...cet animal qui fume la pipe doit aimer le jazz avant guerre, c'est la dernière fois que vous le contemplerez seul car il aime le confort des cranes et bustes féminins...
Bonne Année
