Storyboard Animatic Film

So in the coming months I’m going to post some about the process of how I made my film “Chocolate Milk”

I put up images of the same scene as it appears in my storyboard, animatic and Film so you can see the progression.  When I was looking at the really old Storyboard image, it amazed me that it still pretty much looked like the final.  A lot of times I actually like the Storyboard image more than the final product.  Not just with my work, with most everyone’s work from big studios to other small artists like me.  There just seems to be such a care-free feeling in these drawings.  

My progress with this animation was starting off with a ton of notes of different ideas for scenes then slowly figuring out how to bring them all together.  I definitely did more than a few animatics but I think it shows in how tight the story is.  For those of you not familiar, an animatic is a series of still images edited together and displayed in sequence.    And check out this Gorillaz Music Video Animatic if you want a good example. 

And please be patient with for the Trailer.  Still trying to edit my animation a bit more.  :)  

This is me water color painting my hand drawn animation for “Chocolate Milk.  That was crazy town.  Did the bulk of the painting on Sunday when the Art Center I have my studio at was pretty vacant so we were able to line the hallways.  

So here are a few final stills from my film “Chocolate Milk”.  For the look of my film, I wanted it to feel vintage, be very murky, sepia tones similar to chocolate milk and look like teenage doodles. 

I used a mixture of digital, watercolor painting and hand-drawn to create every shot.  I used an old brick for the Rehab, just cause that idea always made me laugh.  Because I feel like a lot of buildings in Texas just look like a big brick.   I got  the brick from someone on Craigslist . They were trying to sell a ton of them but were nice enough to leave me a few outside their house for free.  I had emailed someone else about a brick but they said me buying 2 bricks for a dollar wasn’t worth their time. lol    

I’ll probably put a separate section on my site next week with more info about the film. Stay tuned…

Here is an image from my film “Chocolate Milk”.  Done with Charcoal and watercolors on different layers.  I can’t believe I’ll finally be done with this film in another month BECAUSE there is still wayyyy too much to do!!!! lol  But I really love how its looking so far.  

I still struggle a lot with overthinking…..but then I just draw the worst thing ever and always feel happy afterwards!  

Here is an image from a while back when I was testing some scenes for my animation “Chocolate Milk”.  I like it but it wasn’t what I was going for…
