[@guilhermemsouza]

Such a great job !! Pixar should make this short!

[@PaulCohen1834]

+Guilherme Mendonça de Souza Thank you!

[@AtlaniBonita]

This looks amazing !! I was just looking at animatic videos as reference so I can make my own for my animations,, but WOW I never thought I'd see such a great example !!! Definitely learned from watching this :O

[@PaulCohen1834]

Thank you! Good luck making your animatic! Don’t be afraid to fail, pick yourself up and try again!

[@Rosario_Z]

im doing the same for my assigment. watching animatics has brought me more joy about animations and apriciations of what goes behind them i feel more exited then ever to be able to study this 😊😊

[@flameoftruth1781]

Super dope!! Makes you realize how important the music actually is in conveying the mood of the scene. Taking serious notes.

[@MicahBuzanANIMATION]

So powerful. Excellent staging and acting.

[@isaiahcaines5718]

I love how they included the Up song in there. Excellent job. Also I need help storyboarding because I want to be a filmmaker. So yeah!!!

[@octopuliander6291]

As a storyboard artist I wanna say this is an incredible work

[@domalistudios94]

[@ethanevans1873]

I like how you used the guidelines for the tentacles great work man

[@louderanimationTV]

This is yet another example, that no matter how finished your article is...Go for it! The backgrounds are simple, yet this gets the job done. Great stuff!

[@sharmakal]

Really Love your animatic. I wish, I could have done 50% of it. Everything is Superb but I specially mention Camera angle, hats off.

[@satishb8286]

I love how you have nemo and Up in there

[@1francosvizzero]

BRAVO!BRAVO!

[@jaygooese4242]

Neat

[@MadDSon300]

Had fun analyzing the shots

[@andrewsung7324]

0:16 if you used storyboard pro, then how did you do that blur on the art? Can that be applied to camera movment?

[@3U9ENE]

So good!

[@nickwiththehat9727]

I've been looking into doing more storyboarding myself (and have already finished my first draft!), thanks to your portfolio giving me the motivation! One question is what frame rate should I be using for the animatic portion? Most professionals I've seen seem to use 30 fps, and the animations I've done so far have been filmed at 24 fps.

[@MohanKumar-lx9jg]

Awesome Good work i love it.............

[@roneldknight3363]

This guy tends to favor pivot turns. They work well. Alt Title- Old Man with Board vs Kraken x)

[@wal.nu_tt903]

Is there a finished version of this animatic? I'd love to see it fully rendered one day!!

[@sprout-y1j]

amazing! may I ask which software do you usually use to make animatics

[@ranjithworld]

great !

[@unnikrishnan6020]

It's amazing Which software did u use?

[@gabyfae661]

This looks amazing, I'd love to see this as an animated short! How long did this take you to create?

[@mikeymike2256]

Amazing!!! How long did it take you to accomplish the full animatic?

[@PaulCohen1834]

I just noodled away on it for a few months. Some weeks I didn’t work on it, some I did. Slowly chipped away and I thought I should just post it and be done

[@cameronhill9267]

What program is this done in?Looks great by the way also!😁

[@princessthyemis]

this is AMAZING! I love everything about it! But how did you use copyrighted Pixar music without the video getting taken down??? This is so inspiring because I'm currently learning how to make my own animatic!

[@gangadhar8998]

Hi,Paul Cohen what softwares you used for this wonderful animatics?

[@PaulCohen1834]

Hi Thanks ganga! Its storyboard pro

[@joshuav7370]

What software do you use for this project

[@ScopeDK]

Did you draw + animated it in photoshop? Or?

[@AndMyHairIsBlue]

GREAT JOB! Wow!! How long did it take???

[@wolfluva24]

and to think it was all for a fish but seriously? this is a number of fishing stories i've heard where the guy comes to have fun and somebody shows you up you know? and you feel down because it went from leisure to competition and when they go with their spoils you left with a can on the line, so you keep trying until you find the whopper no one else could be

[@olivianendick6911]

Is the background music from Up? If so, great music choice 👌

[@simlypanda1437]

It reminds me of Finding Nemo too

[@gardenerdan2500]

actually from finding nemo

[@macaulayshaw3834]

Is that nemo music in background?

[@PaulCohen1834]

Macaulay Shaw yep! Whatever fits the moment

[@macaulayshaw3834]

Paul Cohen cool. I thought it was. Works great. I made a short still picture video and I used the eye of the storm from iron giant.

[@michaelpeprah8960]

What was the budget of your film ?

[@deepbluecreations5456]

Are you Planning to Make this Film like 3D Short Films.

[@icepatron5165]

What software did you use to create this?

[@ademayowajohnajibosin2667]

did anyone else hear the tune from up

[@mayaabueg9018]

How many fps is this?

[@9510dark]

💓

[@silverblaize]

Now THAT is what a storyboard/animatic should be! Are you in any way related to Sherm Cohen? I got his DVD storyboarding course and I loved it, and I noticed you had the same last name as him.

[@PaulCohen1834]

No relation! I've met him at CTN and his niece once accidentally called my desk when I was an intern at Disney Imagineering. Nice guy. Thanks for the compliments on my board!

[@PaulCohen1834]

Aye Yuh Aye Yuh I work at Dreamworks TV right now - so, yes it’s been good for me :)

[@PaulCohen1834]

Aye Yuh Aye Yuh I actually grew up in LA, but even growing up here I didn’t have many connections to the industry. Yes, this specific reel gave me a job. It helped get me a position on a show. From there I was able to build some real work experience to add to my portfolio which helped me secure more work on bigger shows in the future. Right now I’m working on Guillermo Del Toro’s show 3 Below and Wizards, but 3 years ago when I started in TV animation, I was working on Disney Jr shows which were a little less challenging.

[@PaulCohen1834]

Aye Yuh Aye Yuh then he must have had a damn good portfolio. It happens but not often. It’s easier to move here, start working and gaining experience to slide into the jobs you desire

[@isaiahcaines5718]

Paul Cohen True. LOVED THE VIDEO.

[@Ryanrenata01]

what the moral of the story ?, i dont get it

[@JimiJames]

the moral is: just because you want a simple life (to catch a fish) doesnt mean youre not going to get one filled with chaos and disappointment (boots and monsters,) so take it in stride.

[@KuulSHep]

Now see if I was his grandson and I was with him, I'd run like hell cause giant tentacles coming out the water means someone's getting r@ped and my cheeks be clinched the whole time I'm running. Lol

[@AutoEditProductions]

Check out some of our Animatics workreel : kzbin.info/aero/PLiaZ6R75Uz63spDCPbhJbcjEeQiUtbEUz Do share your feedback.

[@flat_foot9017]

Absolutely love the facial design and gestures, and the boarding is top notch but the constant back and fort with the tone is just not doing it for me. You're trying to make a dangerous and scary situation comedic and I don't think it is translating. It works at the very beginning and end but that's about it. Remember the ticking crocodile in peter pan, the crocodile was serious the entire time, and it is funny because of it

[@09siders]

Hi Paul Cohen , This is so Awesome I'm a 3D artist on video game especialized for VR. I would like with you agreement convert this on 3D movie animation. It's not a comercial project but if you are agree I'm pretty sure it could be awesome. I'would like to let you my email if you are agree ? just keep me in touch

[@PaulCohen1834]

Kevin Ketfi that would be awesome! Would love to see what you come up with!
