For #Feboardary I'm going through my boarding process in detail - and it usually starts with thumbs that look like this! I keep them super-tiny and super illegible so I never get "married" to any one shot composition. My first ideas aren't always best, so I do a lot of alts!
Mao Mao: Heroes of Pure Heart was nominated for another Annie Award! This time, it's directing for our unbeatable director @mikejmoloney, and it was a LOT of direction to make all of the gags myself and @Angelo_Hat put in really come together! One of my fave episodes to write!
The blue notes on my thumbs help me to figure out which shot setups I'll be able to re-use. When yr boarding on a tight deadline like in TV, re-using shots is lifesaving both for you and the BG folks later. Here's 3 shots I was able to re-purpose with different FG/BG elements.
The note "S/A" stands for "Same As," which means it's the same as the previous panel or shot. When it's written on characters or BGs, it's a nice shorthand to let people know the characters aren't moving from panel to panel without having to copy/paste or re-draw them.
My print will be exhibited at the Peoples' Summit 2022 from June 8-10th in Los Angeles! It will be 3 days of art, speakers, and mobilization to uplift the voices of working people, and counter the anti-worker international summit for heads of state/CEOs. You should go!
So it's only irresponsible when the little guys do it? #gamestonk #RobinhoodApp
TONIGHT at 6:10 PM, the first of the episodes I boarded on with @grifkimmins will be airing on Cartoon Network! ULTRACLOPS was a trip from start to finish and you'd be surprised by how many pterodactyls were cut from the original pitch.
I boarded this opening sequence with Nate Cash, who really wanted to push the envelope on this refresh!! It was an absolute honor to get to touch one of my favorite shows from when I was a kid. Here's some board to screen comparisons of my contributions (🧵):
My work is wrapping up so I'm available for boarding work starting in the spring! I'm great with comedy and action both! Hit me up to see my recent samples, as the stuff online is a little old! Please share if you can!
Mao Mao: Heroes of Pure Heart was nominated for another Annie Award! This time, it's directing for our unbeatable director @mikejmoloney, and it was a LOT of direction to make all of the gags myself and @Angelo_Hat put in really come together! One of my fave episodes to write!
happy #LesbianDayOfVisibility to my no-BS girlfriend and to all the non-straight passing couples who also have to go through this every five seconds in heteroworld
Premiering on Cartoon Network tomorrow at 6pm, it's MAO MAO'S BIKE ADVENTURE! This was the very first board I did on Mao Mao with @grifkimmins and suffice to say it was a real hurdle learning to fit all the stuff we wanted to write into just 11 minutes. Hope you like!!
I drew Tangela for #inktober today cuz I love its design even tho he's not super spooky!
