Shootingboard & Key Frames TV Christmas Story

An excerpt. Pencil on paper, scanned.

This story is based on an illustrated book by Ole Könnecke, Elvis und der Mann mit dem roten Mantel. The book contained a handful of images and my task was to use them and “fill-in-the-blanks”. The movie came out on Christmas 2005.

Below you can see the first draft of the first scenes.
I'm really good at drawing elks now.
I actually sent in some illustrations (an overnight pitch) beforehand, to show that I could match the figures.
