CINEMAGIC 2011 Dublin Lecture

Hello all,


I wanted to let you all know that on the 12th and 13th of May I'll be in Dublin for the wonderful Cinemagic.
The International film and television festival for young (and not so young) people has attracted great audiences in the past years and in 2010 delivered festival events in New York and Los Angeles to mark the Festival's 20th Anniversary.
This year the organisers have kindly invited me to present Fantastic Mr Fox and deliver my lecture on the story process of the award winning film and discuss techniques and methods used in storyboarding for feature films.
This will be one of the last chances to get my Fantastic Mr Fox lecture as I am now in the process of developing a new lecture for future festivals and master-classes.


If you happen to be in Dublin come by and catch my presentation on the 13th, or catch me in one of the local watering holes on the 12th... It happens to be my birthday!

SHOWREEL 2011... It's here!

Finally had a little time to edit our new One Hand Clapping reel...

Enjoy!

For any promo, commercial or short go to One Hand Clapping...

Go on give it try. You know you want to.

SWEDBANK commercial storyboard

A quick post for a Monday morning...

I produced this rough storyboard for Passion Pictures in one evening as they needed some panels to use in a pitch to their client.
I worked on a 21inch Cintiq tablet using ToonBooms' Storyboard Pro, the same system we use on Frankenweenie, which although more limited in drawing tools than say Photoshop, is a far superior tool for storyboarding. It's so time saving I managed to produce all the work in under 3 hours.
The gig ended up going to Aardman Animation who created a sort of Fantastic Mr Fox style commercial, but with no real fur.

You can see the commercial here, Swedband: Under the Oak Tree.
