Labatt Blue “Epic” Storyboards
I had a good run a couple of years ago getting hired to draw storyboards for an ad campaign for Labatt Blue, a Canadian Beer brand. They have a Bear character (just an actor in a bear suit) who is their Party Champion – a “Duff Man,” if you will- who shows up at opportune…

Nissan Rogue “Launch” Storyboards
How many storyboard frames do you need for a 30 second commercial? It’s an interesting question. Sometimes you just need a handful of “pitch boards”, to sell the idea along, so maybe 5-8 frames in that case. Sometimes you are drawing “shoot boards” which are critically important to be as clear and explanatory as possible,…

Nutella – Spread the Happy
Here’s a fun quick one! I boarded out this spot for my great clients at Brand New School– they do great work and are always involved in fun, whimsical, creative projects. Nutella was no exception. The concept was clear and well developed- and they had great designers on the project, so I was able to…

Corona “New Can” Storyboards
This is one of my favorite recent projects- a great concept, flawless execution, and I got to have a lot of creative input. The concept is really simple- a Corona can is situated in a dreamlike beach scene, and transforms into a palm tree, and from that palm tree sprouts another palm tree and between…

Payless “Parkour” Storyboards
Seems like everyone’s always rushing around, late for something. Hurry up! Finish faster! Boy, I hear a lot of that. Just kidding, nobody’s faster than ol’ Maxi. That’s why I was called to do this spot. They needed shoot boards ASAY (As Soon As Yesterday) and … well… frankly, we did this project so quickly,…

Glade Storyboards
Just a quick one today- I can only take partial credit anyway, since I was mopping up for another artist who started the project but was not available to finish it. Really though, they should have just called me in the first place! Maybe they needed a slower artist, to, I dunno, take his time…

Olay “Red Carpet”
Another fun awards-season spot. Seems like I had a bunch this year. This was a fun concept- highly stylized shots of woman’s night preparing to walk the red carpet- shot in reverse- so we reveal the secret to her glamorous beauty- Olay Regenerist face cream! This spot was highly developed by the director, a very…

Dove and Twitter #SpeakBeautiful
It’s a brave new world out there folks… a brave new social media world, full of funny cat videos and epic fails. It’s a force for good AND evil, as we’ve all experienced, no doubt. A double-edged sword, if you will. You can say anything to anyone and everyone, practically anonymously, and lets just say,…

We’re all just simple farmers, right? Well, even if you don’t swing a hoe, you might enjoy these simple storyboards. Simple drawings to tell a simple story of a simple farming family- passing on the tools of the trade to the next generation of farmers. Here, we use a juxtaposition of shots of dilapidated tractors…
