Lugz Commercial and Such.

   Lugz Commercial!

  I've been hired to do a commercial for Lugz and their shoes.  I start animating Monday.  For now, it's centered on our plucky main character and some sexual innuendo.  It takes place at a crowded community pool.  Below's some concepts on it and backgrounds/completed scenes.

Gals, storyboards, and the main character on the left.

More boards, backgrounds, and reactions.

Some birds, and the establishing shot's background.

     Tomorrow's my meeting with the folks at Lugz, for the last time before production starts.  We solidify the story around the piece: The main character, a plucky teen named Dick sits on a lounge chair and sees some ladies across from him.  He reaches down at "something", and struggles and tugs at it while grunting and everybody looks on in shock and awe.  At the climax, we see that "something" was a sunscreen bottle.  Everyone breathes a sigh of relief.

     Simple premise, but they'll let me go wild with the reactions and make them be really exaggerated.

     I decided to name this piece "The Golden Idol", and below's the screenshots and here's the progress again.
