In this task we had to redesign one of
7 characters from the Beano. This was part of D&AD 2018
- Angel
Face
- Beryl
the Peril
- Billy
the Cat
- Ivy
the Terrible
- Secret
Agent Sally
- The
Belles of St. Lemons
- Valda
Initially, I was considering choosing Angel Face and ageing her up to a
teenager. Upon researching Angel Face, I discovered she
is considered Dennis opposite and is around the same age as
him. I felt she was limiting in that she is coloured in, she's part of a well-known
and established story. However, upon researching Billy the
Cat's character I changed my mind as he had more potential. With
Billy because he's not as well-known and the lack of colour
his characters appearance provides the opportunity to completely
reinvent him. It’s also more enticing because of the challenge
of gender-bending the character.
