Blackout Boards

Published June 4th, 2006 in Storyboards

I’m in a production company with some friends which we call Magic Beans Productions. Our most recent project is a music video for the song “Blackout” from punk band Scatterbox’s new album “Sudden Movements” out on Clickpop Records. I did these quick-n-dirty storyboards for the video and also “acted” in it as Skeleton Man, making this the third masked and non-speaking role I’ve had in a Magic Beans production. We shot it yesterday and are presently in post-production. As with our last production, this was a journey into the surreal. It may be hard to glean much of the feeling of the video from the boards, but from what I saw and experienced yesterday, it will be magical. I’ll provide more news and details as things progress.

Poor Skeleton man, no one wants to play with him!

Looks pretty magical to me. I like that people are jumping out of their little squares.

Yes, poor Skelly. He’s so misunderstood.

Thanks, Cheryl. Yes, with that hollywood magic, we will make them dissappear (as they run off-screen).

I’m a Storyboard Artist and Illustrator currently in Los Angeles, where I live with my fiancée, three cats, and several colonies of ants. My earliest memory is as a three-year-old, drawing a picture. About three decades later, the picture is still being drawn. It’s one I never want to finish.
