New Media
So, it’s no secret that all of entertainment and more broadly tech in general has undergone a major series of contractions- layoffs have affected every Studio and WFH job. There’s been major reversals in the unprecedented demand of post-covid “peak media”; Labor strikes in Hollywood; AI technologies rendering whole professions redundant; and interest rates AKA…

Rough Sketch vs. Final
A quick one today! I just noticed that this updated version of wordpress has this fun option of interactive image sliders- so that you can compare A/B images and appreciate the differences and similarities! I have below an excerpt from a project a few years back- again, depicting a family enjoying nearly being “there” with…

Ingenuity – Quick Simple Color
This is a quick job that needed 3 spots boarded, with COLOR, in half a day! Of course, I’m used to needing to draw quickly, but color usually really slows things down. Of course, being a great storyboard artist is all about adapting and turning weaknesses into strengths, and of course, being the total zen…

Top Secret Commercial
Here’s kind of a funny notion- a commercial that’s top secret while you’re working on it, and barely disclosed as it airs, and you can’t even guess whether or not you even contributed towards it. How fun! Well, I drew the following boards, and the following commercial was aired shortly after, and that’s about all…

AT&T “Market Mishap” Storyboards!
A while back, I got called in to my good clients at DirecTV (now AT&T) to work on a spot for their Adworks campaign- a commercial about commercials! How funny! But really, it makes sense to make sure your advertising dollars aren’t going to waste, right? That’s why you hire ‘Ol Maxy, right? and then…

Love, Depicted
I’ll leave out the specifics on what product/company these frames were advertising for; suffice to say, it was a collection of short spots of families and loved ones reflecting on the nature of their relationships (with some product placement tastefully featured in the periphery). Rather, Let’s consider these boards an example of how I really…

BATES MOTEL | Promo Pitch Boards
So here’s a riddle: When are you HAPPY that your favorite binge-able show finally is finally axed? WHEN IT MEANS YOU CAN FINALLY POST your storyboards for the promos!!! I’ve been dying to show these off for a while now. Of course, these were just pitches for promos, and as far as I can tell,…

Xbox “Scorpio” Debut Trailer
Earlier this year I had a blast working with the good people at BLIND on their amazing project: The Xbox “Scorpio” debut trailer. This officially introduced the world to the Xbox One X, and it’s always an honor to be included on such high-profile assignments. I’ve generously been given permission to show some of the…

“Asphalt Xtreme” Storyboards
Woohoo! Here’s another fun project from earlier this year that I’m very proud to show- fun video game racing action! The “Asphalt” Series is well known in gaming circles as a premium racing product and I was very excited to be involved with my clients at PSYOP for their pitch and production of this great…

Nutella “Spread the Happiness” Storyboards
Woohoo! In addition to the previous Nutella spot, I happened to do the boards for the most recent follow up- “Spread the Happiness!” Once again produced by my great clients at Brand New School. They are playing this spot a LOT on TV right now- which is great, since it rocks! It’s fun, it’s pop, it’s…

Pine Sol Storyboards – “Powerful Clean, Lemony Fresh”
Here’s a fun spot I worked on earlier this year for my great clients at Mirada. It’s a charming commercial fo r lemon-scent Pine Sol, and to provide a brief backstory: the agency had “tested” a wacky concept of small soldiers and ballerinas chanting “powerful clean” and “lemony fresh” as they jumped into a Pine…

“Date Night” Storyboards
Here’s a quick sweet little project I boarded a while back – one of those synergistic multi-product subtle mega-mercials masquerading as a network PSA – tips for a fun “date night!” Here, a couple starts out there morning routine as usual- but then in a moment of whimsy, it strikes them to spice things up…
