Storyboard & Animatic
The storyboard and animatic map out the reanimated BoJack Horseman opening, visually capturing his downward spiral. The sequence starts with a spilling bottle, symbolizing his struggle with alcoholism. As he falls, pills float around him, representing his drug abuse and self-destructive tendencies. Toward the end, the animation becomes more abstract, with kaleidoscope-like images of Princess Carolyn and Mr. Peanutbutter—two key figures in his life—showing how his relationships distort as he sinks deeper into depression. The animatic helps bring these elements together, setting the pacing, transitions, and overall mood to ensure the final animation delivers its full emotional impact.
