backwards boarding
I tried backwards boarding my fav animated show - maybe - Adventure Time (E25 S1). This is the first time I’ve tried out this process as recommended to me during a mentoring session. I find it quite challenging actually, because I consider myself to me quite a slow worker and storyboarding is supposed to be quite a fast paced process. I was being way too precious, hence why I’ve only boarded about 10 seconds worth of footage from the episode. Also, after I drew it all, I realised I’d probably have been better off creating a long vertical panel and drawing the fall “beat” once, then using arrows to describe the movement of the characters falling and the panning of the camera. Oh well, something to consider for next time. Probably took me about 4hrs to draw all these out. Insane!
I posted some closes ups of the close up panels because I’m super meta lol. No, I just really liked how they turned out, but I also acknowledge that they are way too overworked for thumbnail story panels.
