Toby and the Roach
Nov 1, 2024
"Toby and the Roach" was a short collaborative film centered around a lazy CG robot in a half live action and half CG environment. In this project I was given the roles of co-director, producer, and head of story. As head of story I wrote and helped draft the initial storyboard and storyline for the short film. As co-director and producer I continually ensured my team was on task and on schedule, as well as having final say on many decisions such as lighting, textures, and overall look development. I also continually created many first drafts for shots, including the rip of the first arm, arms hitting walls, roach walking around wall, and title sequence.
This project challenged me not only creatively, but also with managing a team of five. My biggest challenge though was keeping up with everyone's roles and fostering an environment that utilized everyone's skills to the fullest extent.
