HUGE SPOILERS MASSIVE SPOILERS.

I love Riley. I love this song. I made an animatic >:3 what more can i say

[arguablyartworks]

Here's my Storyboarding class final, the "Nuclear Soup" story from the Lancer campaign my character Percy is from.

The story is told in a somewhat nonlinear fashion. Different background colors denote different scenes, and different main colors on each character denotes who the main focus is in that scene.

Mind you, this is only the third animation storyboard I've ever done. And we weren't really taught much sound design beyond how to input sound into the program and move it around. I did the best I could using basic Audacity, which I barely know how to use. And yes, this was with Toon Boom Storyboard Pro. And if you remember, Toon Boom products and I do not exactly tend to get along very well. (That said, Storyboard Pro was much kinder to me than Harmony was.)

Each character is voiced by their creator. I thought it was a neat little touch, at least. None of us have ever done any voice acting before, and as such, we're definitely pretty rough around the edges.

I had a bit less than five weeks total to both conceptualize and make this. I ended up cutting several corners toward the end, and there are several mistakes I can see now that I'm well outside the Finals rush.

Regardless, I'm still proud of what I managed to make!

I will also note that parts of the "nuclear soup" story had a comic version I did for fun from back in the end of 2022, which I utilized as the basis for the final scene, updated and with only minor changes, which is viewable below the cut.

....and that's where 2022 me tired out.

There's also this image (also from 2022) from a part of the argument that got purposefully left out of the animatic!

I planned to make it a full art piece, but I tired out on it, too.

Any Storyboard Pro alternatives? PC and/or iPad.

Particularly one that would let me import my own layers. I find drawing backgrounds in Clip first easier, then characters and then camera movements.

SONIC PRIME "AVOID THE VOID" STORYBOARD COMPARISON

Inspired by what some of my colleagues have posted to Tumblr and IG, I’ve put together this side-by-side comparison of my Sonic Prime storyboards and the final animation. This clip is the climactic ending to “Avoid The Void,” an episode I’m particularly proud of. It’s the first one of Season Two, where Sonic and Shadow finally meet in the Shatterverse. It’s the moment their storyline, which started in Season One, connects and leads to a vicious no-holds-barred punk rock brawl!

I wasn’t supposed to direct this episode, as I had already moved on to direct a Peanuts special for Apple+ (though continued as EP on season two, but not on season three), but this episode fell into my lap due to a glitch in the schedule. So it was Peanuts by day, Sonic by night, with three weeks to build the animatic with the storyboard team. Because we had half the time we usually have, we kept our boards rough, rarely tying down a drawing. Anyway, what’s the point of doing tight drawings when it’s going to be CG, right?

Below, a still from act three of Avoid the Void, when Sonic blasts out of the Ghost World/Ghost Green Hill.

From the early stages, when Man of Action was breaking out this episode, it was clear that this one had the potential to be something big and cinematic. Set in the surreal world of the Shatterspace, it combined weighty emotional drama with intense action. At long last, it was also the big Shadow episode that fans had been patiently waiting for!

The photo below is a screen-cap from a Zoom record of Sonic Prime's "Avoid The Void." All the voice actors are Canadian. While Duncan (one quarter of Man Of Action) and I are in Los Angeles. Seen here are (left to right) Devon Mack, Erik Wiese, Duncan Rouleau, Andrew Duncan, James Corrigall, and Ian "Shadow" Hanlin. 

Below are some storyboard panels I drew from the opening sequence from Avoid The Void. I had to add spot color because I wanted to give the feeling of the void and also because of the different colors of the gateways.

I hope you enjoy this behind-the-scenes look at Sonic Prime.

P.S. A shout-out to the hugely talented STORYBOARD TEAM and ANIMATION CREW! You guys rock!

calico calcio- my final for my storyboarding class

[dottyistired]

toon boom shut down their troubleshooting forums and replaced it with a redirect to their discord server.

you can no longer google a question about storyboard pro or harmony and find the solution on an old thread from someone who had the same issue years ago. you have to join a discord server and sift through messages from thousands of other users.

decades of accumulated information thay used to be freely available on the public internet has been quietly dumped into the abyss. because forum hosting costs are Too Expensive for the company that charges this much annually for their software.

✷ Tonk's Art Resources ✷

Hi! No one asked but I wanted to make a big list of art resources I use because I like to try and help people be creative! Not everything I list is free (mostly the books & some PDFs), but I’ll try my best to keep a big portion of it unpaid.

I've also made a carrd with the same links and a set of software links + prices but I'll be updating this with more things I find that I think would be helpful. :)

hey!! sorry if you’ve already answered this question but i wanted it ask what program you use to make your animatics?

I use paint tool sai for drawing and sony vegas 13 for editing! my computer is horrible so it can't handle programs like toon boom harmony or storyboard pro

i made my own template mimicking the animation programs layout so my frames look like this, then i fix then in vegas!

a very unorthodox method but you work with that you have! xD

[habken]

this has probably been asked but what do you use for your animations? is it CSP, PS or Toon Boom Harmony???

Toon Boom mostly ! Last one I did was on storyboard pro though lol
