Well, here it is the final FOP title card. These are always fun to do, most times I am involved in the conceptual stage but this time I was handed a rough sketch that the creator had done. For me the most fun is always working out the type...I pride myself on creating new and hopefully interesting type treatments. Color was done by my good friend Kristin Donner.

One of my many duties on the show is to work out poses from the storyboard of the main characters doing zany things. This is also one of the most enjoyable parts of my job as well, although sometimes when it involves 3, 4 and 5 characters it can get tricky. But the more time that I spend doing this the better things look when they come back from overseas. Here's a cluster of poses I've done over the last few months or so....

One of my many duties on the show as a Character Designer is working out main character poses from the boards. Our Storyboard guys are ALL amazing (Butch Hartman, Fred Gonzales, Dave Thomas and Rudi Bloss). These guys have a LOT on their plate so it's my job to come in afterwards and clear up any poses that need it as well as throw in a few more straights and curves to help push the visual style. it's the most challenging aspect of my job and probably the most fun part as well. At some studios it might even be considered character layout, to me it's just pure fun.

Kind of a collection of some fairly recent Tuff Puppy designs. This is what I spend most of my time doing, working out poses with the main characters and creating incidental characters. My good buddy Ernie Gilbert did the initial design of Kitty and he flushed out Butch Hartman's vision of Dudley.
