Testimonials

We are really pleased with the animation that Ian created for us. Ian came up with the concept by himself and kept us informed with his progress at all times. The animation explains what Deki does in a simple and informative, yet witty manner. We have had many positive comments and use it in all our presentations, as well as on the website - thank you Ian.

We gave Ian a blank canvas, outlined to him our problem and asked him to come up with something ‘creative’. Ian attacked the problem from a unique and innovative perspective, creating a piece of work that was witty, challenging and effective. Working with Ian has been pain-free and we will definitely use him for future campaigns.

Ian's imagination and artistic ability in developing these drug cartoons really brought this project to life. It has allowed me to deliver what can be both difficult and sensitive messages to young people in a creative and impactive way; that could not have been achieved without his touch of genius.

The feedback has been hugely positive and his product is being used across a range of educational programmes and activities as a consequence.

Ensuring our website engaged with 16-24 year olds was essential to the success of our campaign. Thankfully we found Ian who had previous experience of designing creative web sites, animations and publicity work aimed at targeting youth markets. His unique artistic style, which has a wide-appeal, allowed us to highlight important road safety messages in an engaging and non authoritive way. We look forward to continue to work with Ian.

Working with Ian on our 2011 High School brand campaign has been amazing. From helping us realize our vision in small and large format print collateral to bringing the campaign literally to life in video animation, Ian has consistently gone above and beyond to produce brilliant work in a highly professional manner. We can always rely on Ian to bring creative flair to our direction and to deliver his work on time, even under some extremely tight deadlines. We can't wait to continue working with Ian as our campaign evolves over the next couple years.

In "Bob and Brenda" Ian has created characters with such strong personalities and visual identities that it is impossible not to feel a warm affection and ferocious loyalty to them.

Ian Ball was a finalist in our NHS/Creative Review competition. His characters - Bob and Brenda - delivered the messages we wanted to get across to the wider public and made us laugh more than any other entry! As an animator Ian is massively creative, flexible and has his eye on what the client needs - we would very much welcome the opportunity to work with him again in the future.
