Partial transcription of the video

“ON ILLUSTRATION AND ILLUSTRATED POSTERISM Now I am going to talk about my references of my influences in the field of both general and related illustration with the music. I would like to start with James Jean and his book "Fables", which compiles the covers he has made for comics that have this name, "Fables". James Jean is truly a monster of the illustration, the admiration I have for him is immense and I wanted to highlight some illustrations although I would show you the whole book if I had time.

Illustrator and Designer

Oscar Giménez is a hopeless illustrator. He is permanently dissatisfied, although fortunately, after 13 years in the profession, he no longer believes in perfectionism, nor in luck. He does believe in dedication, slow cooking, and music as the best opium, so much so that he also co-directs a music magazine in the spare time that he doesn't have and devours concerts as if he were paid for it.

He was born in Barcelona and welcomed by Madrid. If you look closely, you will be able to see his work in the press, in publicity, on television, in murals, on book and magazine covers, and on records and posters. If you don't pay attention, it may be he who is watching you, because his restless head is an exhausting catalog of references of all kinds. He's not a genius, although the coats look good on him and that can throw you off from afar. Some of his clients are Adobe, Playboy, Universal Music, Rolling Stone, Audi, Heineken Music Selector, Telecinco, El País, and The National Magazine Company, among others.

In his music posters he has illustrated Elliot Brood, Pumuky, Vivian Girls, The Human League, No Age, Crystal Fighters, and many more.
