I n 2002 I was contacted by the organization for the FIS Alpine World Ski Championships in the renowned pristine alpine resort town of St. Moritz, Switzerland. I was informed, that I had been chosen as the designer and illustrator to create the official mascot for the event.
As an experienced character designer for over 20 years, I have had the great pleasure of accompanying my clients in their search for a dynamic ambassador for their brand or event and creating a design that fit like a glove.

(… and SUPER HEROES)
Avatars and character designs to be used in print, motion graphics, whiteboard videos, or explainer videos. Detailed and shaded in different styles or flat line art and vector graphics. Delivered on layers ready for import into your layout software or Premiere or After Effects.
As an experienced cartoonist, I create high-quality and affordable videos tailored to your needs. My name is Ian Marsden, and I’ve been creating custom whiteboard videos for clients all over the world for many years. Whether you’re looking to explain a complex concept, introduce a new product or service, or simply entertain your audience, I can help you achieve your goals with a custom whiteboard video.
Hand-drawn drawing videos or Explainer videos (sometimes called Whiteboard Videos) are an excellent tool for businesses looking to convey complex ideas and concepts in a simple and entertaining manner. As a seasoned illustrator, character designer, and cartoonist with over 20 years of experience, I specialize in creating custom-made whiteboard and explainer videos that are engaging and unique.
To kick-start the production process, I start with a detailed briefing where I gain a full understanding of your requirements and objectives for the video. Then, I develop a script and storyboard that outlines the story and visual elements of the video. Once the script and storyboard have been approved, I begin animating and producing the video.
The cost of a custom whiteboard or explainer video varies based on a range of factors, such as the video’s length, illustration style, animation complexity, and number of revisions. Therefore, I always provide a personalized offer for each project that is tailored to your specific requirements.
When it comes to pricing, I prefer to provide a binding flat rate estimate that includes the entire production process, from script and storyboard development to animation and final delivery. This way, my clients know exactly what to expect, and there are no surprises when it comes to hours spent or unexpected costs. I also provide fixed milestones for delivery and deadlines, ensuring that the project stays on track and is completed on time. Whether you need a single Explainer Video or a series of videos, I can provide you with a comprehensive and transparent estimate that meets your specific needs.
My portfolio includes a variety of illustration and drawing styles that I master to ensure that every project is unique and appealing. Whether you need an explainer video to showcase your products or services, or a whiteboard video to explain your business process, I am confident that I can help you create a captivating video that delivers your message effectively.
Absolutely, every Explainer Video that I create is tailor-made to fit the specific needs and goals of my clients. I do not use any pre-made templates, cookie-cutter characters, or generic puppets. Instead, I work closely with my clients to understand their vision, and then create custom illustrations and animations that bring their message to life in a unique and captivating way.
Contact me today for a no-obligation offer, and let’s work together to produce a custom whiteboard or explainer video that engages your audience and strengthens your brand.

It was on December 2nd, 1998 (almost 20 years ago!) that I started my first website “Marsdencartoons.com”.
It evolved over many iterations, and later for several years it also hosted the Marsdencartoons Cartoonist’s Directory which was a popular resource to find links to illustrators and cartoonists all over the world.
Since I don’t only draw cartoons but also create more “serious” illustrations and logos and character designs for various clients all over the world, I decided in 2014 to create my new homepage MARSDEN ILLUSTRATION, which you see before you and which embodies all the various facets of my work in my PORTFOLIO
Such as my personal sketchbook, the first Google Doodles which were created by me, Advertising and Business Illustration, Custom Whiteboard Videos and Explainer Videos design and production, Editorial Illustration, Comics, Logos, Character Design and Mascot Design, Ritzenhoff Designs, Children’s Book Illustration, Wacom Tutorial Videos by Ian Marsden, Packaging Design and some of the album covers I created for La Toya Jackson and Ja-Tail Enterprises LLC.
For a few years it autoforwarded to my new domain, but a few months ago I let the old marsdencartoons.com domain name expire. A fresh new start.
It appears that another company has purchased the domain name marsdencartoons.com and is now putting up a website for Illustration and Graphics.
This is of course perfectly fine and quite normal I guess by Internet standards, although it would be interesting to know who the “Marsden” is who is featured in their domain name. Because one thing I can tell you is that it is NOT me.
For the record, I wanted to state categorically: that I, Ian David Marsden, am no longer the owner of the domain marsdencartoons.com, I am in no way involved in their enterprise, and am not affiliated anymore in any way with marsdencartoons.com. Any transactions with this domain will not include any involvement with me and you will not be purchasing artwork created by me.
