Storyboards 2024 (CURRENT)
STORYBOARD #1 – “A MAGICAL LESSON”
This storyboard is from my original story, “The Keepers of Caleer.” Inspired by a scene from a storyboard I made in 2023, I expanded on a scene that follows Knight AKINA and her apprentice ADELPHIE as they take part in learning an important lesson: you can find magic…even in the most simple things!
(SKILLS EMPHASIS: Comedy/Inspirational character Acting, Magical Effects, Camera Angles, Storytelling Though Music)

STORYBOARD #2 – “CATCH ME IF YOU CAN”
This storyboard is from the same “Keepers of Caleer” story. However, this scene occurs much earlier in the story, before Knight AKINA takes ADELPHIE on as her apprentice. ADELPHI is a local thief, and is dodging a young Knight AKINA who wants to try and arrest her.
EXPERIMENTAL CRAFTSMANSHIP: this scene is a combination of 3D/2D. I modeled the background in Maya to have a basic environment. I then animated cameras to the shots I had mapped out in thumbnails for this sequence. I then exported the 3D shots and drew over the videos in Procreate Dreams to add in the character’s acting.

STORYBOARD #3 – “THE SCARS WE CARRY”
This storyboard is from my original story, “The Dawn of Denali.” The setting takes place in a realm where human and tiger tribes are at war. A young Indian woman named DENALI discovers she has the power to shapeshift from human to tiger. In this scene, DENALI wrestles with using her shapeshifting power to end the human-tiger war. Can DENALI show the humans, and her best friend ANYA, that the tigers are not the monsters that everyone sees?

STORYBOARD #4 – “YOU’LL NEVER BE ALONE” SONG SEQUENCE (CURRENT PROJECT)
This storyboard is a part of the same story from “The Dawn of Denali.” In this scene, DENALI receives some encouragement from her tiger mentor MILU. This storyboard features an original song written, composed, played and sung by me called, “You’ll Never Be Alone.” This storyboard is a CURRENT PROJECT that I am working on! (Note: Voice actors change in this scene for DENALI. Also I am not a singer, but this is more of a demo song for an actual singer)

Storyboards 2023 (PAST PROJECTS)
“THE TAVERN” Storyboard Sequence #1 (2023)
This first storyboard takes place in a medieval Tavern. The knight Akina (long hair) tries to convince her reluctant friend and fellow former knight, Elphie (pixie cut), to join a quest. The two begin at odds with one another – but through the power of music – Akina and Elphie find that they may be able to undertake their quest together after all.
(Original Song by Me – Please note that I can’t sing, but I can write music and can carry a tune. I wanted to showcase my characters in a “musical sequence.” )
“THE QUEST” Storyboard Sequence 2 (2023)
This is a continuation of “THE TAVERN” animatic. Join knights Akina and Elphie as they go on their quest. As they ride their trusty wolves through landscapes and encounter rough criminals together, they will reach a hidden land that Akina has searched for for many years.
