Rules of Life – Sitcom Titles
What is the film about?
I had the great opportunity to create and direct some titles for upcoming sitcom pilot Rules of LIfe. Animating a day in the life of hapless main character of Stan, it was produced using hand drawn techniques and edited it After Effects. Why can’t they animate the whole sitcom I wonder? Hope you enjoy.
What influenced it?
My major influence is hand drawn animation from the golden era of Disney and it has progressed from there. I really like rough drawings of the great masters hence why I keep my construction lines in
A little background information...
A friend of mine, Luke Butler, had directed this great comedy sitcom pilot and asked me to produce the titles for it. He let me have full creative reign so I was quick to say yes! The rest is history as they say
How was the film made?
It was created using traditional hand drawn techniques. Animation paper, a lightbox and boxes of pencils. This was then scanned and coloured in Photoshop and comped in After Effects.
