We are storyboard artists in animation. During the course of production millions of sketches are produced. Some are used but most are not. These are the ones that "got away" and scribbly scribbles deemed not worthy for prime time.

Rejected Designs
Here are a few designs I did for a movie I was working on. I used the shape tool because the "directors" wanted a "Cartoon Network" type look for this 3d movie. I had fun learning the shape tool at least.
tnyOvi! The shape tool is that little pen icon in the tool box in Photoshop. It's fun! I think you'd like it! Thanks Steve! They may go in a direction like this, but they rejected my take on the characters, saying they were too youthful. Doodlers! Thanks! I think that maybe the directors thought he was too cute. Chris! Thanks! I'm a big admirer of your stuff so that means a lot! Thanks everyone!

No no no! Too appealing! Try again!
Maybe you could make it a little more like Steve Silver's stuff...
Nice!! Really appealing designs!
These are cool...looking good!
A Cartoon Network style? jeez! And what is that exactly?... sigh!
Anyway! I hope you can use these funny designs for something else!
In fact, I may steal the monkey! Hyuk, hyuk, hyuk!
(not really!)
("steal the monkey" sounds like a euphemism!... he he... "I caught him stealing the monkey!... disgusting!")
You can never go wrong with monkeys. NEVER! lol
Great stuff.
Super-neat! You worked wonders with that shape tool!
Maybe you can do a Chippy and Loopus in this style??? T'would be nice!
Should I do a drawing, or a whole strip?
Pff, if I was a producer on Curious George, I woulda set these on fire and thrown them back in your face too! And stay out Mr. Original-Boy!
Nah just do a drawing. It would take too long to color a whole strip.
Cool stuff John
Robo,
These are cool, but it sucks they're trying to get you change your natural style for a 3D show.
Give it a go with a new style for the strip!
Huh. That lil' monkey is waaaay too cute.
Those look awesome. I'd love to have seen them explore this direction for the movie. Pity!
