Wham Bam Islam is a film my studio had the pleasure of working on over the past year. The Film was directed by Isaac Solotaroff and explores the negative stereotypes the Muslim community receives and its lack of heroes to positively inspire. Enter "The 99". Super-Heroes to inspire the children of Islam.
I worked on this film as Creative Director and Lead Illustrator. I lead an incredibly talented team of Artist and Animators to create this wonderful piece of work.
