Studio Brief 2 - Telling Stories - Bob Camp Storyboard Artist

Bob Camp Storyboard for Ren and Stimpy.


I decided to look at Bob Camp because his storyboards are clear and clean, which is a contrast agiainst the other storyboard artists that I have looked at such as Ridley Scott and Mike Ploog. Scott and Ploog create images that have a lot of depth and often colour, whereas Bob Camp creates quick sketches to depict the characters actions.




His quick sketches are accompanied by short sentences about the actions that fits in with what is going on. Camp clearly demonstrates action through motion arrows and visual representations of sound. The way that a lot of the animators that worked on Ren and Stimpy back then was act out each sequence, and document the actions within the storyboard to correctly depict movement for the cartoons, which is successfully done in these examples created by Bob Camp.

Overall, I find his storyboards interesting because he successfully captures motion and expression within the characters in a clean and precise way, without too much description to go along with the storyboard.
