COLLABORATION QUICKENS - THINKING AND INKING

Today, Joe Stucky, Animator/Concept Design/Storyboard Artist, shared more of his concepts and first draft of boards which have brought to life the key moments of the opening two scenes of Chasing Daylight.  His work makes the world take shape without having to travel and has been helping me ask/answer story questions that have been hard to nail down.  Joe has a great economy of image that comes with years of experience envisioning how animation frames, characters, and movement come together.  If you scroll all the way to the bottom you'll be rewarded by a few of the character concept sketches of Cooper and Lucia, two of my main characters.

STORYBOARD 1

Here are a couple of concepts for Cooper and Lucia.
