Here's a little bonus thing to tide you over till the next episode (it should be out sometime in January). This is the animatic for season 1 episode 4 "Katy's Birthday" which seems to be a fan favourite so far, and maybe my favourite as well. I do S&TM storyboards very quick and dirty, just scribbling in enough to see if I think the overall shot flow, acting and timing are working. I prefer not to get the boards too tied down, because I feel that takes away a lot of the impetus to actually do the animation, and removes the fun of discovery from the process. There's some dialogue missing, some shots that were later cut, some different staging etc. Hope you enjoy this! And Merry Christmas!
