Background designs for Rick and Morty - Season 3
I was brought on after episode one and what a amazing show to work on. There is literally so much from this show that I would love to post, but can’t fit it all here.
I began art direction on Rick and Morty in season 5. Each episode of Rick and Morty presents its own challenges both with the conceptualization of the script and the size of each episode. That combination provides opportunities and challenges in both the design of each episode and the production economy. Regardless, the design opportunities of Rick and Morty are limitless due to the nature and the complexity of every script and every animatic we get. One of the many pleasures of working on Rick and Morty has been the talented crew we have on staff and seeing what they do with the direction given to them. The art I present here is a combination of both concepts I have done and final production pieces sent to the animation vendor by designers and painters I have art directed.
The last 5 pages presented here are from the finale of season 5 and are art directed by James McDermott. These layouts I designed and painted based on the board panels.
Background designs from Final Space: Season 1
Various designs from each of the episodes I work on for season 1. The shows was blast to work on and allowed me to experiment with some unique design ideas.
A small sampling of some of the work I did for the Steven Universe movie. Such a great project and such a wonderful team. The painted Bg I designed was painted by the talented Patrick Bryson.
