Holiday Card and Mentor Group Meeting

Welcome back everyone. I hope you all had a great week. I got to have a group meeting for my mentorship, I worked on a holiday card for my full time job, and I got work on a gray scale version of my Inktober illustration.

My group meeting, we got to review some my talented “classmates’” (I am not sure what to call the other people in the same mentorship I am in lol) storyboards. I learned a lot during the review, such as importance of shot variation. I tend you reuse similar shots, with the idea of making it easier for smaller productions to tell their stories. I see that’s not the best way to proceed or think when working on boards. This is something I am going to keep in mind.

Every year my IT job contracts me to create a Holiday card. Every year I pitch an idea of a snow man melting in the server room trying to manually turn on the AC to keep from melting and the server room getting too hot. To me it is the funniest thing and works because our motto is “Whatever It Takes”. We always work our hardest and go above and beyond our customers. This year I finally got it ok’d to be this year’s holiday card. Check out my Instagram page to see how it turned out.

My Inktober illustration had all the prompts this year and I combined them in to one super illustration. Keep an eye on my Instagram page to see how it turned out. Hope you stop by again next week. Board On!!!
