“Sergei turned to marketing manager Susan Wojcicki, who found illustrator Ian Marsden and put him to work.
In May 2000, Ian created the first Google doodle. It featured—surprise, surprise—aliens making off with our logo.”

The Very First Google Doodles by Ian David Marsden
As a professional artist, illustrator, cartoonist and character designer, one of the highlights of my career so far is certainly that I happen to be the very first Google Doodle artist. 🙂

It was tremendous fun and I was totally delighted when Google contacted me to be their first artist. Back then I was working out of a one bedroom studio in Santa Monica, California and we were trying to keep our little two year old baby in diapers, so the whole magical world of the internet in it’s very first pioneer days was a wonderful and thrilling place to be and I was honored and thrilled that I was able to actively participate with Google and some of the other projects I helped realize back then. Even in those early days it was clear to me (and most other people) that Google was headed for greatness. 🙂
The first Illustrations I made for Google, were shown on April Fool’s Day 2000. Google launched the amazing MentalPlex Technology where you could just think of what you were searching for and Google would find it. I created a little character and made some animated GIFs to explain how it worked.

My first ‘Google Doodle’ series was also the very first actual Google Doodle – namely the Alien abduction of the Google logo which happened in May 2000.

My second Google Doodle was Google Doodle II – Founding Father’s BBQ and Fireworks for the 4th of July.

The third series of Google Doodles I designed were the Olympic Doodles for the Summer Olympics in Sydney – Google Doodles Summer Olympics in Sydney with the little ‘Kangaroodle” I also created for Google and for the event. I have never received more fan mail than I did during the days these olympic google doodles were online. Hundreds, probably thousands of e-mails from all over the world. All of them positive and friendly. 🙂

The last Google Doodle I drew was the Global Happy New Year Doodle 2001 with the two little white bears throwing a party.

I hope you enjoyed this little walk with me down my Google Doodle memory lane.

Article Midi Libre : Ian David Marsden illustrateur, dessinateur
20 Novembre 2015
Lien: Article MidiLibre

Son coup de crayon a été remarqué par des publicitaires.
Illustrateur, dessinateur et désigner, Ian David Marsden donne libre cours à son imagination selon les supports avec lesquels il travaille. Il met en image une histoire, un message, des caricatures et s’exprime ainsi avec talent, avec finesse et originalité.
Passionné par toutes les créations graphiques, avec peut-être un penchant pour les BD, son coup de crayon a été remarqué par de nombreux publicitaires. Ainsi, il a réalisé une BD publicitaire pour Digades/Dfreeze. Cette enseigne est leader du marché des télécommandes pour le chauffage automobile.
Logo, étiquettes, objets…
Il a également créé le logo de la marque Pastrelmi. Ce logo lui a été confié par son ami Helmi Sigg, un acteur humoriste écrivain suisse, qui a imaginé un délicieux pastrami made in Suisse. Le pastrami est une recette inspirée de la cuisine roumaine. Dans son village, Ian s’est lié d’amitié avec Olivier Panchau, vigneron au domaine de Cammaous. Après de nombreuses années dans la viticulture qui lui ont forgé une solide expérience, Olivier a souhaité voler de ses propres ailes.
Ian est intervenu dans l’illustration de son dépliant publicitaire, dans la création de certaines affiches et la décoration d’un verre de vin. “Actuellement, je suis en discussion avec plusieurs établissements viticoles pour la création des étiquettes de vin en édition limitée, personnalisée, avec mes dessins à l’attention des amateurs et collectionneurs. ” Il crée également des objets utilitaires rigolos, comme des gobelets, des assiettes, des cadres.
