Taco Bell commercial pitch- Rubik’s Cube
Here’s some storyboards I did for a pitch for a recent Taco Bell spot. The premise is, you can use an app to order whatever kind of taco bell food item you want, encouraging you to try new items and new combinations. It’s like having a Taco Bell Rubik’s cube! And here’s the final commercial.…

“Brave Frontier” Storyboards
So, here’s some awesome storyboards I did for a video game commercial- a mobile game app called “Brave Frontier,” which is apparently very popular. I wish I had more time to play games myself! Jumped into this project and worked concurrently with some very talented concept artists and directors to establish a very cool look…

Kindle “Voyage” Storyboards
Here’s a cool project- Amazon’s new paperwhite Kindle Reader, the Voyage, is so paper-realistic, you just can’t believe it’s not paper. And thus, the commercial for this device is a kind of paper-craft 3d papery world with classic print text on the paper. Paper. I did a lot of storyboards/concept frames for this spot- it…

Brain Games – Storyboards
Brain Games is back! And I storyboarded the promos for the second season. These were some of the most challenging spots I’ve ever worked on. Brain Games is a show about the fun quirks of our minds, and many episodes focus on various kinds of optical illusions. Well, for this project, we were tasked with…

Airborne “Everyday”
Everybody needs to take Airborne Everyday vitamins everyday, everybody knows that. Why, no, I’m not a doctor. I just draw them in commercials. Medical advice aside, this was a pretty simple and fun spot to work on. Brought a little bit of color to the project with the vitamin “snow” effect, which seemed to work…

Call of Duty “Extinction”- Cinematic
Lucky me, I got to work with the very talented folks at The Mill earlier this year, and storyboard their cinematic cutscene that they were doing for the new Call of Duty “Extinction” series. It’s a DLC expansion game, I believe, which means it’s a smaller, downloadable game, part of a very popular franchise, and…

“Bleach This” Storyboards
Just a quick one this week. These boards were done over at BNS (they keep me pretty busy!) as part of a competitive pitch… and they were awarded the job! Always nice to hear. And since the boards were very tight and concise, no further revisions were needed, and the went straight into production. BNS…

Knob Creek Storyboards
Love me some bourbon. And it’s always fun to mix business and pleasure. For this spot, much product was tested in the name of “research.” I’m passionate about quality boards and spirits. Brand New School produced this spot, and their talented designers had pretty much already won the day with some very impressive style frames. My job…

“What is Smart?” Vizio
So this was a great project to be a part of. The producer at Mirada knew me from my time at Brand New School and recommended me for the storyboards on this spot- :60 commercial introducing the “Smart” TV from Vizio. This was another one of those “come up with something nobody’s ever seen before”…

“One Day” CSU Online Plus
Whatever your thoughts on the for-profit school system, their services need advertising like any other. These commercials usually fall somewhere between the “Do YOU need an attorney?” commercials and the “But I cant AFFORD car insurance” commercials in the typical daytime TV commercial break. “Get YOUR career cookin! at the Center for Culinary Arts!” Yeah…

Years in the making… Lost Treasure Hunt
In the early stages of my career (my “faking it” phase), I advertised my services on Craigslist and got involved with all kinds of fun projects that never amounted to anything. I’m proud now to say that Lost Treasure Hunt, a project from those Craigslist days, has developed to a point that it has top-grade…

Reeses Puffs Breakfast Cereal Storyboards
We see our young hero approach his ultramodern kitchen and select his breakfast of choice- Reeses, of course. It’s the only cereal replete with musical talent. Each little particle of puffed wheat is a symphony in the crunching. That’s clear. But what you may not realize is no force on earth can contain said symphony…
