Not Just Commercials…. “Race at Target Field”
Many of my motion-graphics clients produce shorts and promotional materials as well as broadcast commercials. A few months ago I storyboarded a sequence to pitch a kind of animated short that screens at Target Field, home of the Minnesota Twins. Part of a larger campaign featuring a handful of…

Zombies!
I was trying to think of something interesting to post, and came across some boards I did for this Walking Dead Sweepstakes/Bing commercial. This was kinda fun for me, since I never get to draw zombies; usually my assignments involve drawing healthy, happy people, nothing scary. I’m a fan of the Walking Dead comic book,…

Storyboarding Onsite
I’m doing a lot more onsite work than I used to. I take that as a good thing, but it’s never fun to slowly wade through LA traffic twice a day. Oh well. Used to be that I almost never met my clients, and would work from home over the internet. Now I work onsite…

My Brand New Storyboarding Blog…
Fascinating, to see how far website design has come in the last few years, since last setting up my previous website, MaxForward.com. The power of today’s cutting edge blogging programs have completely supplanted my need to finagle and frankenstein together my own haphazard concoctions. Big thanks to DreamHost, for making it easy to register and…
