Sunny Side Down
An original microseries directed for MAKE Originals.
Sunny Side Down is about a tiny diner hanging inexplicably in front of a supermassive black hole... and the alien customers unlucky enough to get sucked in. This sci-fi parody episodic series was built for youtube, where each story fits into 2-3 minutes, but delivers a short series arc when put together.
Episode 1: Going Boldly Nowhere
(Boarded solo, edited animatic and rough sound design.)
Episode 5: Funny Title Loading
CLIP from episode focusing on all my drawings only.
(Director, story lead, script writer, boarded episode with board partners Andy Bella and Adam Othman. Edited Animatic and Sound.)
Assorted Series Panels
Alone in the Darkness
2024 Siamés Music Video
Role: Scripting, initial character concepts, and storyboards with a board partner (selected pieces below are my own sections.)
At MAKE, boards also includes putting together the animatic edit.
Rough character exploration, with a focus on gender ambiguity.
Final Result:
Lightbox Expo ‘24 Socials Campaign
A series of short social spots designed to highlight the personalities of the three main mascots for Lightbox Expo, which are three creative, colorful spirits of pure light.
Boarded to accommodate all aspect ration cutdowns (vertical, horizontal, square) for socials rollout.
Mythic Co.
An upcoming MAKE Originals series where I was brought on to help with scripting, plus beatboards to show the character's relationships and potential staging.
Classic office comedy with a medieval fantasy creature twist.
