Meta: Art of the Storyboard

The ASIFA-Hollywood Animation Archive is presenting an exhibit devoted to the Art of the Storyboard throughout the months of June and July. Included in the exhibit are segments from the boards for the pilot episodes of The Yogi Bear Show, The Alvin Show and The Flintstones; as well as examples of the work of Warner Bros storymen, Warren Foster, John Dunn and Mike Maltese.


Archive volunteer, Marc Deckter reads the board for "Stimpy's Invention".

Recently added to the exhibit is an eye popping set of storyboards from John Kricfalusi's Spumco studio. Included in the collection are the original hand drawn storyboards for "Stimpy's Invention", "Space Madness" and "Sven Hoek"; as well as the Ranger Smith special and the Bjork video. There are boards for unproduced Spumco projects and sequences that were cut before the episodes were broadcast too.
