More Mighty B storyboards

Here's some panels from a storyboard I did for Mighty B, called "Awww-esome", which was the 3rd out of 4 storyboards I did. This was a really fun episode to board, because it had a lot of scenes with Bessie getting really frustrated and behaving strangely, and I love that sort of thing.





Basically Bessie is trying desperately to catch a glimpse of newborn puppies on the website "Puppynet" (just like puppy cam! Look it up if you don't know what it is!), but she keeps missing them and gets more and more irritated. Meanwhile her puppy obsession deeply offends her dog Happy, and ultimately leads to a scary ending. Actually, I haven't seen the episode yet, so they may have changed some stuff from the storyboard. By accident I changed an important part of the ending, making it a lot less child-friendly, but no one said anything at the time! I wonder if they kept it? Here are Bessie's fellow honeybee scouts reacting to the puppies:




Eddie Trigueros did the beat boards for this episode, and his cool and cartoony style was a huge help and inspiration when I was drawing!





I should probably add that these are just bits and pieces from the story- it's probably not gonna make a whole lot of sense looking at these. I just chose the ones with drawings I liked! You'll have to watch the episode to see what's actually going on! :)







The gag above is that Bessie can't manage to get to the hot dog vendor because people keep butting ahead of her in line. I couldn't for the life of me manage to come up with a smart way to stage it so that what was happening would be clear, so Eddie helped me come up with this totally silly solution of having them just drop randomly out of the sky.



Really weird incidental cop guys. I hope the designers on the show made these cooler! :D





I love drawing extreme frustration! Below is how I look when I'm mad.




Bessie is now determined to see the puppies on the screen, but every time they appear she somehow misses them.










The rest of this post is stuff from the ending of the episode, so if you plan on watching it and want to be surprised, better quit now!








Bessie watches in helpless horror as bad things are about to happen to cute things.






I like the description for the above panel






Hooray! Happy ending! I'm glad I got assigned this story because I got to draw lots of puppies. If you liked these, I posted some more storyboards from my first episode here.

That's all for now! If anyone's seen this episode, please let me know how it turned out. I hope to post new drawings soon. Thanks for looking!

Mighty B storyboard stuff

****EDIT!!!!!****
I added some new poses that I forgot about at the bottom...they are from the end of the show, so if you don't want to know what happens at the end of the episode, stay away! >u<


My episode was on tonight! I missed it though because I was at work. Booo! A friend taped it for me though. Thank you friend!

Anyhow, I think now that my episode aired, it's ok to post some drawings from the storyboard. I feel pretty honored to have been able to storyboard for this show- it has really, REALLY amazing artists, and I felt pretty intimidated a lot of the time. I wish I had gotten to know some of the people there better, but I can be pretty shy in person. My officemate Justin, who did a bunch of great boards, is really cool though. I miss him now that I'm at Disney again.


This is how I feel in the morning.




David Gemmill added a bunch of cool cartoony poses to this part where Bessie is running in place on her bed, and it turned out really fluid and nice.




Erik Wiese, who created this show, acted out this grunt for me to draw. :)


I like these Bessie poses...I don't remember if they made it into the show though!



Oh, I forgot to mention, this episode is about Bessie having a really really terrible day, where everything goes wrong. It was fun to draw because I really like drawing expressions on characters, and puting my own misery into the drawings. :)


I think this part with her soul floating away got cut for time.








I love drawing anguish. :)


More anguish! This got cut though.



Bessie as a Linda Blair beast...this drawing is based off of an Alex Kirwan drawing from the beatboard that he did for my episode. His drawings are amazing. He's a total animation hero.














Bessie dancing, dressed as a giant pineapple.













I saved the best for last...check out the title card, painted by Bill Wray!! So pretty! I didn't contribute to this at all...I'm not sure who drew the layout, it might have been Bill as well. I'll try to find out and give credit.



Sooo pretty! Check out more pretty and cool paintings on Bill's blog!



That's it for now! Thanks fer visiting! UuU
