I knew where each was situated, so it was pretty straight-forward to plan out the board, and to plan out my different sequences. Looking at animated shows coming from different countries and using that as an inspiration to make the different sections of the storyboard. The thing that I did, in the cases that I wasn’t familiar with a particular style, was to just watch a few clips. We wanted to have styles that were more anime-like and styles that were more cartoony that reflect all different kinds of styles. I knew that we had to go through different styles in the storyboard because this product is used by studios all around the world. What was your approach to planning out your boards? This animatic chews, somewhat literally, through a significant number of characters and scenery over the course of two minutes. I am used to having all this material before in order to do the animatic.īut Lauren Bélec, who was our sound designer, was able to use the animatic that I built and made his sound fit the animatic. I was missing some character designs, and I didn’t have the sound or voice recordings.

The way that it differed from doing storyboards for TV productions, was in the fact that I didn’t have all the materials before I started the storyboard. They were done by people I worked with - people I know - so it was easy to chat with them and have the discussion as to what was needed and where I was missing certain things. I had the script, I had the character designs, I had location designs.

Most of my experience has been in television storyboards, so I handled it pretty much the same way. How would you say a project like the Feed Your Creativity animatic was similar to your experience in TV pre-production? How was it different?
