  • YEAH... layouts are rarely glamorous. :D which is the point! :D

  • wow, not that it matters, but i didn't even know that phil was gay. I'm glad to see that even professionals have "messy" layouts. I'm the only person who can probably understand my layouts.

  • there is one step between script and layouts,and that would be gathering of reference images.which of course is dictated by the plot itself. and the you move on to the stage that mr jimenez is demonstrating so masterfully. bravo,mr jimenez,bravo.

  • I agree with Old,this is the nuts and bolts of story telling,it's not just pretty pictures,its all about the story,great vid,hats off to mr. Jimenez for being such a fantastic artist and teacher.

  • Wonderful work. Some people might not see it in the early stages but to me its like gold.

  • FFFFFIIIIRRRRSSSTT!!! you make it a messy but easy way i guess, so nice vid, but how did i get here? hmmm...
