The Making of “I Got A Laugh” Animation

May 12 2009

I am so happy to announce that Greg David and the talented folks at Planet Sunday are doing a great job putting together the new Debbie and Friends’ animated feature based on our echo song called “I Got A Laugh.”

The process of creating this movie has been so much fun that I wanted to share it with all of you.

First, Greg and his team listened to the song and came up with ideas of how to present the story as a movie. They used characters designed by my good friend, Robert Heath of Barkley Studios including the Sheriff, Debbie, Dolly the horse, and various members of the band!

Next, they sketched a rough version of the animation set to music. This is one of the pre-production steps called a “storyboard.” It’s a rough sketch that gives you a general sense of what the finished piece will be like; minus the color, animated movements, etc. Click the triangle to play the storyboard.

I’d love to know what you think! We should have the finished piece ready to debut in June.

Stay tuned!

Debbie
