False Faces Storyboards

noreply@blogger.com (Todd Julie) — Tue, 13 Apr 2010 16:33:00 +0000

I've started doing storyboards for my first feature film screenplay, 'False Faces'. I thought I'd share a few. Though they're not entirely finished, just to show I'm working. Here they are, out of sequence and without captions, of course.

Sketch Art 1

noreply@blogger.com (Todd Julie) — Tue, 16 Mar 2010 17:02:00 +0000

I sketched this, along with a few other images, while brainstorming for a larger project. I liked them so much, I had to share them. When I tried to post them all together, blogger got the formatting all fucked up. So instead, I suggest you visit my facebook fan page to see the rest. New style in the works?

Lorenzo (The Magnificient) Medici

noreply@blogger.com (Todd Julie) — Wed, 03 Mar 2010 18:07:00 +0000

Lorenzo was the handsome, intelligent grandson of Cosimo Medici, who had set his family up as master manipulators of the renaissance Florentine republic. The family's power base was in banking and the Medici bank, for a time, handled the money for the Catholic Church. However when Lorenzo refused a loan to Pope Sixtus IV, the Pope initiated a conspiracy to kill Lorenzo and his younger brother, Juliano, successfully killing the later. The Pope intended to send out the king of Naples to humble Florence after this failed attempt on Lorenzo's life but Lorenzo rode to Naples, risking his life to meet with the king, successfully pleading his case and saving the city.

Henry VIII

noreply@blogger.com (Todd Julie) — Mon, 01 Mar 2010 19:10:00 +0000

Here's the 2nd piece in my series of historical portraits. Henry VIII.

Henry VIII

Henry was like a bad ass, medieval version of Orson Welles - "He ran through women and ate like a beast". He had almost every Chancellor who ever worked for him executed, some highlights include Cardinal Woolsey, Thomas Moore and Oliver Cromwell. Henry defied the power of the pope, setting himself up as the supreme head of the church in England, founding the Anglican church. He is also considered the grandfather of the British Navy.

Vlad The Impaler

noreply@blogger.com (Todd Julie) — Sat, 27 Feb 2010 17:36:00 +0000

Here's the first in a series of historical portraits I'm doing, entitled 'History's Bad Asses'. Click on the image to see a larger version.

Vlad The Impaler

Before he was the basis for Bram Stoker's Dracula, Vlad Tepes was christian Europe's frontline defense against the expanding power of the Muslim Turks, who in 1453, had just recently toppled the ancient Byzantine empire. Fleeing a Turkish advance, Vlad engaged in a scorched earth policy as he retreated, at one point leaving a field of impaled bodies to greet the oncoming Mohammed II. When confronted with the scene, Mohammed is said to have remarked in horror, "What can one do against a man who does these things?". Vlad is also said to have dined, on occasion, in the presence of his impaled victims.
