You might remember almost a year ago I posted that I was creating the concept art and storyboards for the animated sequences in a short film . Well, it’s done! New Soul, starring Larry Miller and directed and co-written by Michael Fry is finished and being submitted to film festivals, including Sundance, SXSW, and the LA Comedy Fest.
Here’s some character model sheets I did for the production:

…for the New Soul kickstarter fundraiser. Here’s a couple of more sketches I’ve done so far:
Just about a year ago Michael Fry (Co-creator, Over the Hedge comic strip) contacted me and asked if I would be interested in storyboarding his newest project, a live action/animated short called New Soul. For a while I had been thinking about branching out beyond my animated editorial cartoons for the Washington Post, so of course I enthusiastically said yes. Larry Miller (Best in Show, The Nutty Professor) plays Advisor #51 and from what I’ve seen of the rough cut, it’s just a wonderful little gem of a film. Watch the trailer here at the Kickstarter campaign page. There’s only 48 more hours to go on this fundraiser!
