Cntl-Heart-Delete Color

Last year Ghostbot asked me to do some color for an in-house project.  I was really happy with the results.  Here are some of the panels I worked on.  The board drawings were all by the talented Alan Lau.

 

The final cartoons did not have any of these moments in them, but are still super cute and fun. 

Where is my Heart?

I'm loving this game!

Ninja

Spaceman

More aimless painting!!! Used Sketchbook Pro's symmetrical setting to make the figure. Background and textures added in Photoshop.

Zombie

Got some time to just play around in Photoshop. (I know... crazy right?) Tried using a few new brushes I designed... I had zero plan... just went super fast and sloppy... and was done in just over an hour...



I plan to do more of this sorta stuff this year... just post more in general... and experiment!!!

Holiday Card 2011

Last chance to get a final blog post in this year.

Here is this year's Ghostbot Holiday card I was lucky enough to get to design. Alan Lau had the awesome idea for a robot that looked like a tree. I loved that concept and had fun trying to bring it off successfully.



Below are the color rough and some really rough early concepts:

Here's another Ghostbot project I was lucky enough to work on as Art Director:



I had a lot of fun on this one. It was my first collaboration with the extremely talented Ghostbot director, Roque Ballesteros. He was great to work for and gave me a lot of room to play with the look of the Backgrounds and Color. Roque pointed me towards Saul Bass, Kuntzel and Deygas'"Catch Me If You Can" title sequence, and the incredible Lou Romano. I added my own love of Charlie Harper and Bob Staake, and we were off developing the video late last year. Early on, with just those references and the song lyrics, but no board yet, I came up with this:



I also roughed these out around the same time:




Roque was such a fan of the ideas in these roughs that he retooled some of the scenes to allow for these moments. I was very pleased with the "kaleidoscope" scene of the car zooming off.

Thanks for taking a look!
