I work on this show. We (the RS crew) all get a real kick out of looking at all the fanart, good and bad/pornographic. I haven't posted in forever but I decided to pop my head in here again and see if there was a thread about Regular Show. You guys didn't disappoint! GOONS EVERYWHERE

On the first 12 episodes I was a storyboard revisionist, which means I fixed drawings here and there and added backgrounds to storyboard panels. I did a lot of work on next week's episode "Death Punchies." I lovingly cleaned up the lines on JG's drawing of Rigby's scarred butt. Now I'm doing storyboards for episodes that will probably air next year sometime.

Pick posted:Oh my god. This episode was crazier than most of the things on Adult Swim. We had a Clockwork Orange reference, sparkle-farting on someone's face, drinking whatever "unicorn slomp" is, straight-up loving murder, and whatever it was that happened to Benson, I... I don't even want to know. The original line was "It's definitely not unicorn piss!" but we couldn't get it past the network. Also the "lady" looked like this in the storyboard: http://www.flickr.com/photos/calwong/4323859456/ edit: embedded! Life is Eat and Die fucked around with this message at 20:51 on Oct 26, 2010 |

Martytoof posted:Life is Eat, do you get to sit in on writer's meetings for this stuff? I can't even imagine how much fun it must be to sit around coming up with this stuff. I do! We play writing games every week and from each session we generate around 30 premises. JG cherry picks from those ideas and some of them get made into shows. It's a lot of fun but also lots of really intense work. The show is premise driven which means the writers give outlines of the plot to us and we actually write the dialogue and jokes as well as storyboard the whole episode.

DJExile posted:How do these games go? I've been curious how these things work. We have a few different games. About 6-9 of us get together in a conference room typically. In one, we just write out possible episode titles, throw 'em into a hat and draw them out one by one. We're given 2 minutes per title to write a premise and then another title is drawn out. In another we fold a sheet of paper into quadrants and draw a picture on the top quadrant. We pass it to the person on our right after 2 mins and he/she writes the first act of the story based on the picture. Then we pass it again, and again until all 3 acts are done. A lot of the premises are pretty raunchy and could never make it to an episode. I kind of remember one where Muscle Man gets arrested for selling crack, or there was the one where Rigby and Muscle Man get married. It's funny how what we're talking about at lunch colors the games, like one time during Shark Week we all ended up writing shark related premises. It's a lot of fun! octothorpopus posted:Is this from Second Life, or what? I've gotta know about this. Yeah, I think? Some fan posted it. There might be some 1/2 hour specials like how Flapjack got one... but nothing official.

Countblanc posted:Life is Eat and Die, without feeling obligated to give specifics, does your job afford you a comfortable living, and how much of it was your raw talent compared to just being lucky with "knowing a guy"? It pays well, but it's not stable. The work is finite and limited to a certain number of storyboards per season-- once you're done with that number you're put on "hiatus" and get weeks, even months off before the higher ups decide to order more episodes. It's definitely a "young dude job," the production schedule is totally breakneck and I've pulled a few all nighters since I started 8 months ago. Of course there's lots of recent college grads from Calarts, SVA, Pratt, etc that are working here and totally used to that sort of thing. I'm a total anomaly in this industry in that I was pretty much a "cold call." I was working in IT for years, hating life but I always drew and made my own minicomics on the side to amuse me and my friends. I would do cons and sell my stuff there. JG Quintel bought one of my comics at SDCC last year and he liked it enough to send me a storyboard test, which I turned in and thought I did terribly on. But I guess I didn't, and needless to say I am very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very lucky to be here. Hourly I earn about as much as I did in IT but I don't work all year. I saved enough in my tenure as IT dude to have something cushy to fall back on if I hit hard times. It was worth the gamble! It's pretty much a fan's dream, the day I came down for my interview they did the record for "The Power" and introduced me as "JG's friend from up north" to Mark Hamill. I was pretty much hooked after that!

livingfruitvirus posted:How much did IT pay you? I know Cartoon Network Studios is a union shop and I myself was at Film Roman for a while, which is also a union shop. I was making production board artist scale wages rounded up to the nearest hundred, and in terms of salary that was a great gig. For the first 6 months I was an apprentice so I took a massive pay cut to work at CN, but now rates are really good Everybody watch tonight's episode "Don"! Especially if you have a brother.

i like tacos posted:Looks like season two will be 20 episodes that are 30 minutes if I read this tweet correctly Nope, 20 half hours means 40 11 min episodes. Unless we have some 1/2 hour specials or something. So much stuff gets cut for time in the 11 min format, so I sympathize See Sean Szeles' post about "Mordecai and the Rigbys" for examples of this. There's an AMAZING flashback to Benson's band days in the original board. http://seanszeles.blogspot.com/2010/11/regular-show-mordecai-rigbys.html

Martytoof posted:I like the 12 minute format. I'm not sure drawing each episode out to 24+ would benefit. I like how it's a little slice of crazy every monday. I think if it was longer the characters could develop more. Wouldn't it be great if people had a relationship with the characters on the level of Futurama or the Simpsons? Wishful thinking I guess!

*sigh* Sometimes stuff comes back from Korea all hosed up. Then we run out of time for retakes/stuff slips through the cracks and it goes on national TV like that. It wasn't drawn that way in the original board, I swear.

The "Habs jersey guy" is supposed to look like Cameron from Ferris Bueller. His original design in the storyboard didn't have the Habs logo so I'm placing the blame squarely on our character designer Ben Adams.

yellowyams posted:Dang, that's a lot of good stuff that got cut. Why'd they change the secret? The one in the board seems funnier and actually makes more sense as something you'd want to hide. All that stuff got cut for time. This board pitched incredibly well every time but things inevitably get cut cause we're working with the 11 minute format. We got really into the story and did more work than was required, going crazy with references and jokes. It's happened a couple times this season with the camping episode and the rap episode coming up, maybe those boards will be posted as well. Either way, none of the stuff in the board is canon. Just a view into what could have been.
