I'm So Board!

I know I sound like a broken record on this blog talking about how busy I've been, but it's true!  The last year and a half has been non-stop for me, and my brain has been too fried to spend a lot of time worrying about this blog.  But I've taken a week off to recharge my batteries, so here's an update:

The History Channel just finished broadcasting it's miniseries "The Men Who Built America".  I did some early pitch boards for an episode about Andrew Carnegie.  Above and below are some samples of boards I drew for this show.

I also worked on a film called "Order of the Seven".  It was to be another take on the Snow White story, with the twist on this film being that it took place in turn of the century China.  It was to have starred Saoirse Ronan (The Lovely Bones), and was to be directed by Michael Gracey.  The film was shut down for various reasons, but here are a few samples of work I did for this show.

During the time I was working on these projects, I was teaching a storyboarding class at Otis School of Design and was helping write a book on storyboarding with Sergio Paez.

Another project I worked on will be a straight-to-video sequel to a very popular horror franchise.  I can't show you any boards for it at this time, but the video will be released around Halloween of 2013.  Here's a little hint on what the project is:

Another film I contributed to earlier this year was a concept pitch for another horror film, this one with vampires.  It's still in the early stages, but from what I understand, it's got the green light.

Most of this year has been working on boards for yet another film pitch, which is top secret for the time being.

Anyways, that's it for now.  I'll try to be a little better about posting updates and artwork in the future.

The Stranger

Oh wow. The last time I posted to this blog was in October. Sorry I've been such a stranger! There have been a lot of things happening in my life both professionally and personally, and though it may not be the right time to go into it in detail right now, I'll give you an update of what's been going on.

I worked on two live-action feature films that are supposed to hit the screens in 2013. One is an action-adventure-fantasy movie based on an old property made famous by Disney. The other is the latest installment of a very popular horror movie franchise.

There were also a few commercials and TV projects, including The History Channel and some commercials for companies like Phenomenon, Big Block, and Blind. There was also some illustration work I did earlier in the year for Ojingo Labs. More recently, I also managed to take a little time out to help out Mike Levine of Planet Cazmo create a logo for his latest upcoming venture, Happy Giant Media.

In the meantime, here are some sketches I did for a company that designs plush toys.
