    I love how you explain your entire process. And specifically mention the places you learnt how to do something differently on the process.

    Superb, Brother Maurits. Brilliantly put together deep dive, of the process, with some gems of wisdom in. Blendthren approved ;)

    This was a really useful way to present how you created this board. I dont think it was too long, I think you could have made it even more expansive and I would watch it. I really like how much effort you put into the board, can really see why it paid off and you got hired by Lucasfilm. Looking forward to more videos, great job!

    Hey great video! I have questions! :D First off, I’d love to know what was your process for ideating the story, I usually go into it without a method and I think it shows lol, secondly how many pieces/animatics did you have in your portfolio already before you got hired? Was it you first job as a story artist? Thank you in advance :)

    • @maurits_valk
      @maurits_valk  23 дні тому +1

      Thank you, Francesco! Regarding your questions, for coming up with stories that's just a matter of day dreaming. To come up with how to actually tell the story with shot designs and tone, that would require a lengthy explanation but for starters it's worth studying scenes from movies that reflect your scene's story and tone.
      I think everything that is on my website on the personal page was included in the portfolio: www.mauritsvalk.com/personal
      I want to make a separate video that explains the entire journey of getting this job because there's a lot to it but I applied a year earlier and they saw how much I progressed over a year which helped a lot. This was not my first job. I was working in advertising as a Storyboard Artist for a few years and did a little animation work too.
