I had a portfolio interview with Nickelodeon and DreamWorks at my school just yesterday.
My character design was met with ok reviews. Nice style, they said, but need to ply more with forms, positions, and breakaway from keeping everything in porportion. The ONE thing that has been drilled into me since the beginning of my at schooling. So, it's going to be interesting in what come up with.
The guy from Nick reviewed my work, and said my storyboarding was ok, but that I needed to experiment with different camera angles and horizon lines. I was a bit bummed, but I did go in order to find out if I was on the right track in my storyboarding, and now that I know what I can improve on, my artwork will be that much cooler.
Posted here is the first part of my storyboard for my class. I will probably go back and tweak it as suggested, but for now, it will be posted for your enjoyment.
It's a simple and silly story about a boy who is trying to get his pet unicorn-dinosaur to take a bath. in this first part, the scene is introduced and the pet has discovered a mud pond in the backyard...
