01 Short #1 still Short #1 Episode 11st January 2007 This was the first of three shorts I made for a FOX pilot I sold with the legendary/ wonderful Jack Black back in 2007. These shorts were produced thanks to the amazing and lovely Jennifer Howell who stepped into office at 20th Century Fox as the head of animation around the same time I was writing the pilot script for this show. They originally passed on my insane pilot script, and then Jen pleaded with the big wigs to find some money for me to produce a pilot presentation. Here it is. For the first time ever. Never before seen. Fresh for your eyes. I had a lot of help on this. Some blood, sweat, and a few tears were shed here. Not literally though. No one cried. Myke Chillian, Dan O’Conner, and Collin Flemming were the lead character animators and boy oh boy did they do a TON of work let me tell you. There were also other fine folks who worked on background and color and I am in the ongoing process of collecting everyone’s information for you all to see. st... 02 Short #2 still Short #2 Episode 21st January 2007 Here’s the SECOND (out of three) “Relative Insanity” short. This is another scene plucked from the pilot. Lots of hours of work went into this. Dan O’Conner, Myke Chilian, and Collin Flemming drew SO many things here. We put in an insane amount of time on this. Dear god. The lovely and talented Mindy Sterling voiced the grandma. I hope to work with her again in the future, she was amazing in this. Little fun fact about these shorts: All the animation was done traditionally, on paper, using light boards. The art was then INKED and then scanned into photoshop, where it was colored and assembled into a sequence. Then Sevan would import the sequence and time everything out according to the radio play. It is insane to think we did it like that. Now we’d just use flash or something. Draw right into the computer. The upside here is that I have six banker boxes full of original “animation” art on animation paper. Anyone want some of that? I’ll sell it to you for money... 03 Short #3 still Short #3 Episode 31st January 2007 The last of three shorts that Justin Roiland made for a FOX pilot with Jack Black helping him pitch it. FOX passed on the pilot but luckily Roiland went on to bigger and better things. Featuring the voices of Sarah Silverman, Jack Black, Rob Schrab, Mindy Stirling and Vatche Panos.
