Louis Vuitton´s eclecticism in designing their image has no limits. In one season they take us away with Sean Connery, create a lookbook in Brazil, have Madonna as the face of the brand, create a tribute campaign-collection to Stephen Sprouse, and collaborate with illustrators like James Dignan.
The New Zealand born illustrator created this interesting LV accessories ad campaign for spring 2009.
Dignan has been working with various fashion magazines in Sydney for the past ten years. Now, with creative direction by Christian Reuilly and artistic direction by Camille George, he has created the illustrations for one of the many Louis Vuitton ad campaigns for this spring.
Michael Sanderson was born in Colorado Springs,CO. In 1986 where he began drawing at the tender age 2. He would keep up this practice throughout his whole life, drawing every chance he’d get, to the dismay of nearly all his teachers.
At the age of 18, with a minuscule GPA of 1.3 and a steady portfolio of work he dropped out of high-school and set out to study at The School Of The Art Institute Of Chicago. With hopes of majoring in fashion design, only to find that they too, do not approve of excessive amounts of drawing in class. Instead of drawing produce with charcoal he opted to drop out once more in pursuit of a career in illustration.
As of Spring 2007 he’s been an active illustrator in the world of fashion/lifestyle and corporate illustration. Working with such clients as Victoria’s Secret®, Big Drop NYC, and many Tokyo based clients in between with many more international clients to come.
His current body of work shows a combination of three different illustrative styles sometimes working together or isolated apart. With subject matter inspired from 1970’s fashion photographers with references of fine artists of the modern to contemporary art movements.
Disney is putting a lot of energy into making Maleficent happen. They've brought Linda Woolverton on to write the script, and Tim Burton is still reportedly dancing around the project. Now a rumor has surfaced that none other than Angelina Jolie is showing interest in the project.
According to The LA Times, Jolie has been interested in Maleficent since last spring, but in the last few weeks has become really keen to sign on to play the Mistress of all Evil. The Times notes that she doesn't have a film ready to go after she finishes The Tourist, which might make her free to sign up with Disney. It's still all rumor and conjecture at this point, as the film doesn't even have a script or director. (And I'm still hoping it won't be Burton. Yes, count me among Maleficent's fervent fans.)
For someone whose name has become synonymous with "large family", Jolie hasn't done a lot of family-friendly movies in her career. I could see why she would be interested in signing up with Disney, though it's typical that she wouldn't choose a light-and-fluffy film, but something Gothic and postmodern. She would be the ideal Maleficent though. Look at her bone structure! Wouldn't it be perfect for green foundation and twisty horns?
I'm from where the magic is
I'll give you what I cannot take away with me
And my sunlit day and moon
I wanna have a silent kiss, I wanna make you mine,
I'm thinking how... can't leave me now
Stay with me somehow
You come from where the fire is, you give me what
you couldn't burn the last time
One sunless day and moon
I wanna be so close to you, see whatever scars you
carry within your broken heart,
Mine's your missing heart
Come with me, where the magic is, there's more than
light we could share
We could join the sun and moon if you want to
Be my lifeline for this lifetime, suffer in pleasure
forever and ever
I'd like to see how the walls around your heart will
fall apart...
Stop resisting, let the light in, suffer in pleasure
forever and ever
...for this one lifetime
Let me take you where the magic is, back in time,
Remember the light, of the cold December moon
I wanna have a silent kiss, I wanna make you mine,
I'm thinking you can't leave me now
Stay with me somehow
Stay with me somehow
Come with me where the magic is, there is more than
light we can share
We could own the sun and moon
Be my lifeline for this lifetime, suffer in pleasure
forever and ever
I'd like to see how the walls around your heart will
fall apart..
Stop resisting, let the light in, suffer in pleasure
forever and ever... for this one lifetime
Be my lifeline for this lifetime, suffer in pleasure
forever and ever
Stop resisting let the light in... oh, oh... for
this one lifetime
I am feeling your face in the dark
I'm hearing you breathe in the dark
I am tasting your lips in the dark
I'm holding you close in the dark
I'll take you where the magic is
I'll give you everything I only can offer
You can have my broken midnight moon
If you give me your broken heart
And I will give you something real and golden
We can make this life the finest art
I come from where the magic is
I'd give you what I could take away with me
And a sunlit day and moon
I wanna have a silent kiss I wanna make you mine,
I'm thinking how... can't leave me now
Stay with me somehow
I am feeling your face in the dark
I'm hearing you breathe in the dark
I am tasting your lips in the dark
I'm holding you close in the dark
