“that guy is a real patoot.”
August 29th, 2007
One of the things I love most about working in cartoons is the grind that makes up the sausage, the early drawings, models, layouts, backgrounds, and, of course, storyboards. It’s great to look at the early work and see what kind of evolutions a creator’s mind and pencil go through.
RHOMBUS!!
It’s so seldom we civilians actually get to see this stuff that I thought it would be fun to take a look at one of the boards we picked from the almost 1000 presentations we got to select the 39 Random! Cartoons.
WE’RE GOIN IN TURBO TIME!!!
It’s amazing to see the intact vision of Pen Ward with Adventure Time. From the board’s first frame it’s obvious this man is reinventing the future of cartoons.
YOU WANT YOUR BOOTIES???!!!

Pen Ward is a great talent, and all around nice guy. I’m always anxious to see what he’s working on, as I know it will be something funny and unexpected.

I’ll dig up Pen’s original pitchboard and send that your way. If he doesn’t mind, of course.
