Cake and Candles.
Oliver Trace is a London based artist. He takes inspiration from philosophical concepts that he finds in all sorts of places and gives them a new life through the medium of animation. In terms of form, he focuses on texture, colour and balance. The result is work that is meaningful and stylish. Oliver is the Co-Founder and Creative Director of 2050cards.
Ben Bavonese was encouraged by his twin brother, Noah, who works at the prestigious animation studio Giant Ant, to pursue a life in sound design. His musical grounding comes from spending years transcribing the masters of jazz by ear. He took the same approach sound design, learning by doing, emulating his favourite artists. Alongside his compositions for animation, he is in a jazz and R&B band in Chicago. That energy feeds into his compositions, which are fresh, impeccably produced, and make use of well chosen samples combined with layered melodics.
