This website is where I upload all of my movie and transfer them to different. The Animatic on this website is much better than the weird conversion that was made to the animatic on this blog.

More Art Direction & Inspiration

When I was sketching my characters and working on my pitch poster, I noticed that the way I was designing Friend A and Friend B felt a lot like a combination of the Jim Jinkins's "Doug" and Craig Bartlett's "Hey Arnold!" NickToons cartoons I remembered watching many many years ago. When I started to look through more cartoons I've watched in the past, I also came across Danny Antonucci's "Ed, Edd n Eddy" and immediately remembered how visually wacky and inspirational the characters and animation was. So this, along with the other art direction image, will be just more inspiration I can look to when working on this project.

Rough Scene Designs

This is a rough sketch of playground games I want to put in the park. While they will be a part of the park, it will also become a part of the turnables aspect of the design for the park. For example: the merry-go-round resembles different dials on a turntable.

Theses are the designs of the hill overseeing the park. In the animation, the park will resemble turntables and the hill that the main characters will be placed will resemble the pattern of a microphone.

Character Ideas

The character ideas come from some of the famous beatbox artist that I've been listening to ever since I was a kid.
