Hi all!
I was asked to do character design for a charity organization here in Finland. The charity is called Pieni Ele (direct translation: “Small Gesture”). They collect funds for 18 different handicap and health organizations.
My job was to design a sympathetic character (who was later named “Elmeri”) for the organizations. I also got to make scenarios for TV commercials. They were animated afterwards. My hand is also visible in the commercials. :)
The TV commercials are currently showing on YLE (Finland’s national public service broadcasting company).
Here are the actual commercials and some screenshots. :)

Congratulations! Elmeri exudes so much lightheartedness, a lovable character indeed :-)
Thanks! :)
Wow, good work Micke! Congratulations! :D
Thank you! :)
The commercials are simple and to the point. The communication is touching and totally effective! Excellent work!! :)
Thanks! I also thought it was a great idea and was happy to contribute to it. :)
Your illustrations have contributed totally to create the impact that the commercials have. Love your work, really!
Thank you for the kind words. :)
