A complete guide... to becoming a storyboard artist from the inside out. Free of all unnecessary waffle, this book walks you through every step of the way from putting together your first portfolio and getting in touch with prospective employers to how to price your work. Written by a working professional, "Analyzing Storyboards" provides insightful information drawn from the author's own experience. Foreword "The greatest challenge any commercial storyboard artist must face is probably also the very first one in his career. Making the transition from an art school to the frenetic environments of the film, television or advertising industries can easily be dispiriting, because it calls for the first time upon skills and resources above and beyond artistic talent. Certainly, Mr Cristiano is a capable artist; but there are other books by capable artists. What he offers here is something much harder to find; a candid and personal insight into the practical mattersof succeeding as a freelance professional. His advice should be valuable to anyone embarking on a career in this fun, but often eccentric, business." Ray Kosarin, Director of animated series for television "During the last two years we have had the pleasure of working with Guiseppe Christiano on several of our most important projects, one of those being the show "The Three Friends... and Jerry". Peppe's work has given the series both visual stringencyand humour and that is why his contribution to the excellent final result of the show is large. We consider Peppe to be one of the best storyboard artists in Europe and will do everything we can in order to continue working with him even in the future."
