The Bad Guys 2 - DreamWorks Feature Animation, Theatrical
I was an early addition to the BG2 story team pre-green light, and one of the last to leave when we locked story. Bad Guys 2 leadership gave our story team a ton of creative agency, and this enabled me to contribute much more beyond my usual story work to the film and BG Short, (released in theaters alongside Dogman)
Overall, my work on this film spans all 3 acts, and a number of my sequences are largely unchanged from my original boards - Here is a selection of my favorite sequences:
Silence of The Pig - Character Reveal; Comedic conflict + contrast, cinematic staging and comedic timing; contributed Acting, Writing, + Character development
*largely unchanged from original boards in final picture *
Return of Tommy-Lee Chief - Chief Misty Luggins is on the case! Contributed Acting, Writing + Character development
SUCM Twist/Marmalade's Tale - Comedic montage + comedy-related action; contributed Character development, Acting, writing + gags
The A-Team/ Final images - Comedic acting and Cinematic staging; contributed acting, writing + gags
The Wedding Crashers Heist - One of my proudest creative accomplishments was my key contribution to the Wedding Heist set piece in Act 2: I was hand picked by show leadership in close collaboration with the film's writer to co-lead an internal story team task-force, to conceptualize and build the penultimate set piece of the film, from early ideation all the way through to the final version that audiences saw in theaters.
Over a full year, we went through countless versions and configurations - please enjoy this selection of early Beat boards and an acting GIF
