STORYBOARD/ANIMATIC TIPS

ko-fi✏️

I made these for my friends, but I thought that might be helpful for yall as well! hehe! Now whenever someone asks for storyboard tips I can throw this at them!

Examples of storyboards I made for fun:

Doodle World: Starfall mention before any lore dumps from me my god 💀💀 /j Rose is the Avatar from ATLAS With water, air, fire and earth, only she can master all the elements and save the universe "(Still-living) Rebecca" Nah you didn't have to disrespect her name like that 💀 Quincy gives me Hunter from Owl House vibes, wouldn't surprise me if we find out he's like idk some creation from Charles using Magitech hence his lack of magic I mean Charles is the big bad it seems, so it makes sense Love some Doodle World: Starfall content always, quartxio <33

DOODLE WORLD: STARFALL WORLDBUILDING POST!!!!!

i haven't been able to focus on making DW Starfall art due to uni, so here's some worldbuilding about the AU and info about its main cast under the cut in the meantime

to recap: Doodle World: Starfall is a fantasy-futuristic AU where humanity discovers magic in the cosmos, after their technological advent into space. so far, all of humanity can only use basic magics, and each individual is limited to only one type. however, across the planets are 'Artifacts' (which replace the Keys) which are said to be able to break the mold and ascend someone into mastery of magics. the protagonist is replaced with an OC - Rose Aurelius, a sorcerer and archivist who came from another world to learn about this one, but gets herself wrapped up in the mystery of the Artifacts.

DoodleCo owns several planets which are in close proximity with each other - each planet houses a different district of cities, and transportation to each planet is done by public spaceships.

Earth remains as the main planet, where the main DoodleCo headquarters has been built. however, the story begins on the smallest planet of the 5 that are owned by DoodleCo - Eria.

the Adventurer Unit becomes the Explorers Unit, who are tasked with discovering new planets across the galaxy.

DoodleCo is still ran by the same canon characters

as for the main cast, most of them maintain their canon personalities, with some tweaks.

TJ is a tamer who joins the Explorers Unit in hopes of making a great discovery. he wants to find the Artifacts, since he's well practiced in magic, and wants to expand his skills in it. however, he isn't the best at Doodle battling, though he aims to improve. he's got a knack for finding his way through places, even if he hasn't been there before

Quincy, son of DoodleCo's CEO, Charles, is one of the few humans who lack the ability to conjure magic, and it haunts him. he makes up for it with his excellent Doodle battling strategies, and one thick wall of ego (tinged with shame) to seal his only insecurity away.

Portia is the daughter of the (still-living) Rebecca, second founder of DoodleCo. she's confident and ready to jump into any action anytime, but occasionally fears she will not live up to her mother's feats. she is obsessed with aliens

Suzie is a bit of a loner who drowns herself in biology studies to distract herself from the fact that she cannot taste (and by extent, smell) anything. she fears it has cost her a lot of what would've been cheerful childhood memories. hence, she works herself to the bone for a cure

fun fact: Portia and Suzie are together

Mr. Riffraff was the third founder of DoodleCo, and the one that was constantly pushing towards technological advancements through ethical means. when he found out that DoodleCo was using Somniere and Verdrok's power to fuel their magitech (magic + technology), he left in anger, and vowed to free the both of them.

Teneson is the right hand of Charles, and seeks order. he despises Riffraff for abandoning DoodleCo for the reason he did. Teneson believes that sacrifices must be made for the greater good, and aims to stop Riffraff from freeing the two.

bonus:

Junjie, the subway guy, is hired by DoodleCo and becomes the head of all public spaceships. he's an open and outgoing guy that occasionally goes behind DoodleCo's back for the sake of the people. people over power is his belief and he is loyal to that

finally, the main protagonist... Rose Aurelius. a cosmic sorcerer, and the Avatar of the Constellation, Lynx, who archives the flora and fauna of different worlds. she takes on a humanoid guise during her time on DoodleCo's planets, and originally only aimed to be an observer to the events of the Artifact Hunt. however, she met Riffraff, who constantly got in her way of archiving, and was intrigued by his goal of freeing Somniere and Verdrok, and decided to help him a little... only to end up becoming more than involved in the whole ordeal.

she's an old cranky and sassy woman who minds her own business most of the time. she does display care, albeit in a tougher way. she becomes the guardian of the main cast after constant encounters with this group of rambunctious kids, and the amount of times she's protected them from fantastical dangers and lectured them has led her to feel responsible for them. Rose cares a lot for them, but her tough exterior makes it difficult for them to see that

Rose and Riffraff are also a couple because i LOVE enemies to lovers and i love old people romance but that's a post for another time

I had a dream once with Cortes spitting out some poorly made food and saying some witty line like, "That's a wedding soup? I'd rather get a divorce" But in Spanish, he sounded exactly like Gordon Ramsey to me in that dream for some reason.

I would've never suspected that in a silly little creature collecting game. The character we play as, would be a puppet and an entirely different entity from us. As we an otherworldly being, aka a God. Give them strength and knowledge in battle to make them unbeatable. Didn't have that in my bingo but alright.

Do what your told

Doodle world! techincally a Pokémon rip off but dang did I enjoy it more then the only Pokémon game (I semi) played!

these are my two party members shred ( my partner doodle) big snek and shatter spooky swirly boy

I have this head canon that Zane, Erika, Quincy and Portia are all just rich privileged kids that act like siblings together. (I mean I head canon Zane, Portia and Quincy as siblings due to Ellen being their adoptive mom) (And I also head canon that Erika is Teneson's adoptive daughter with how highly he talks of her) I head canon that unlike Zane, Erika and Portia, Quincy actually doesn't like coffee. He tried his father's coffee once to "be mature" and immediately disliked it. Something about its taste just doesn't bode well with him. >Zane drinks hot coffee (specifically made in Doodle Lodge) >Erika drinks cold coffee like an iced latte or something >And Portia will drink anything as long as it's sweet Quincy just isn't like them in their like of coffee. That's why. ... Also because Alice cussed him out for ordering a "small" coffee
