Jonathan Burton – BAFTA

Each year BAFTA (The British Academy of Film and Television Arts) selects one illustrator for the prestigious task of creating imagery for their EE British Academy Film Awards evening. This year, we’re delighted to say, they selected Handsome Frank’s very own Jonathan Burton who’s been hard at work on the project since December under the watchful direction of design agency StudioSmall.

Firstly Jonathan created the imagery which will adorn the tickets and menus on the night.

He then set about creating the covers for the programmes which the guests will receive on the night. There are five variations of the cover, one for each of this year’s shortlisted nominations in the ‘Best Film’ category.

Les Miserables.

Each of the film posters is available to purchase exclusively in the Handsome Frank shop. The A2 giclee prints are limited to an edition of 100 each and printed on smooth Cotton Natural White 315gsm 100% cotton paper. They cost £60 (plus P&P).
