FLEABAG
For this project, I wanted to illustrate a piece with intention of uploading it on to Tiktok. I noticed that despite being a highly popular show, the BBC hit show, Fleabag did not have a lot of artwork surrounding it.
The overall style I chose to use is sketch-like since the protagonist considers herself unfinished, constantly evaluating and changing her opinions. The scene itself is inspired by the an iconic moment in the second season as I thought this would be the most recognisable.
The background colours are pink and gold. The pink suggests a feminine narrator for the show and the golden halo behind Fleabag points towards the religious theme that is also explored in the second season.
For the Tiktok video, I decided to conduct a research experiment on the popularity of my illustrations. I posted this video with no followers or following and under a pseudonym. I used I voice clip from the series and basic transitions to show the process of creating the illustration.
Overall, the video grossed 475.5K views and 114.3K likes.
