Here are the opening title sequence and end credits for a TV show pilot I co-directed with the show creator and massively talented Rikke Asbjorn (animator on the Gorillaz videos and Monkey Opera).
It's a product of my day job at the Cartoon Network Development Studio where we're currently developing shows for TV. We produce one eleven-minute super-animatic and colour bible for each show which are then pitched to our bosses at CN worldwide.
Unfortunately I'm not allowed to show the whole animatic here but I hope you like this little taster!

Hey Chris, I saw this on CHF and it blew me away! Great work mate, you have the dream job!
Wow those look great Chris!
Congratulations! The end credits has such great feel. It's amazing to finally see these, and I can't wait to see the rest of the stuff you all have been working on there at CN.
Pass my compliments along to Rikke and the rest of the crew.

I'm intrigued. Hope to see more of this soon!
C'est beaaaaaauuuuuuuu... bravo les amis!
the whole project has a great look to it. The characters have a lot of personality, love how they animated the walk on the scout troop - how they bounce up and down. Its nice to see rendered backgrounds too, so much stuff today tends to be flat and graphic - while thats good, its a nice change to see some rendering. Hope it gets picked up, great job!
Hey, i was lucky enough to see this in production last year, when i looked around the development studio with Jen. Its a really great piece of work, congrats to you and Rikke and team, hope it gets picked up!
Hey Chris - nice work, I totally understand the process and satisfaction after creating something for an animation pitch! You rock! Keep making kick ass cartoons for the kids, they need them and so do us adults - would love to work for the CN Development team in Soho!
