Story Class Wrap-up

So yeah... I just finished my last Storyboarding Class with Rad Sechrist. Who is GODDAMN INCREDIBLE. If you don't know, there's two fundamental things about him that ought to be made clear: 1. he works for Dreamworks. 2. He's awesome.

He taught me a lot about storyboarding and I also had the privilege of being in the company of some pretty goddamn spectacular people.

I still have a long way to go, but I'm glad I'm still meeting some people who can show me how to be awesome.

Below are a few samples from the storyboard I did the final week of class. The whole set is about 50 panels long, and it's still not done. These here are just some of the nicer highlights.

Chun Li, I'm Lovin' it.

I drew Chun Li.

On a related note: this.

Self Portrait in late Scott Pilgrim.

Is anyone else psyched for this goddamn movie? I am psyched for this goddamn movie.

So here's what I'm doing right now...

for everyone who doesn't know, my name on DeviantArt is Skyserpent, and for the past couple of years I've been pretty active on the OCT circuit. That is Original Character Tournaments

Honestly, take a look.

I've drawn a lot of characters over the years and now I think is as good a time as any to try something... I call it the Sketchdump Jam.

Here are the rules:

draw one sketch for every OC that has ever appeared in your gallery.

Scrapbook counts

Named OCs only

One sketch per OC

Costume must match first appearance. Minor redesigns acceptable.

No fan-characters or characters from Comics or TV-shows, videogames, etc.

So far I'm up to 65. Crazy, right?

You can watch some of the process of drawing them all HERE

Welcome to the Yingdom

So yeah, figure it's high time I try and kick off a blog.

This'll mostly be a place to plug in some of my sketches and for me to rant about whatever I feel needs ranting about. Please, pull up a chair, make yourselves comfortable. I'm here to entertain.
