Description **THIS AND PART 9 ARE MY PERSONAL FAVES**


I've gotten a lot of questions these past few weeks about what exactly does a "storyboard artist" in tv animation actually do.

Well in short, we translate the script to what you see on screen. This encompasses everything from staging the characters and BG into compositions, acting, camera movement, lighting, fight choreography, etc.

I hope this clears it up.

If you ever want to learn how to do this, I teach this and more over at the Concept Design Academy in Pasadena every semester. (Shameless plug, I know....)

So you're responsible for Wonder Woman's fighting style in this movie, Jay? Because that was definitely a high point. I've always felt like she should fight with a wrestling base, instead of the kicks and whatnot that we always see from her. It was really cool to see her take the fight to the ground.

Hi, I'm a storyboard artist as well. I do mostly shooting boards for movies. But I am trying to get into the animation side of this biz. I was wondering if you could mossy on over to my page and critique me animation boards.

Very nice. I always enjoy seeing more action boards put up on DA. I like to look through what more experienced artists submit because I've been trying to get into action myself after spending a while in primetime. I've gotten portfolio reviews from a couple artists and two great directors, but it feels like I'm getting mixed signals as to what is desired in action storyboards. Especially when it comes to the cleanliness of boards. I'm used to drawing clean, since primetime demands on-model characters and fine lines, but it also doesn't demand the quantity of pages action does.

Have you checked out my website? I have quite a few boards posted there. I only post my drawings here on DA since I have a website that's more work and class related.

Thanks so much! I was so happy the animation turned out well, that I didn't even remember what my initial layout was.

I'm very proud of the way the movie turned out and I'm glad you enjoyed it too!
