New Storyboards

2009-10-31T11:05:00.001-07:00

These are some updated storyboards for the commercial. In these six panels we begin by introducing the average kid who has just woken up to start his day by brushing his teeth. You gotta remember as a kid you hated to brush your teeth and I'm sure that attitude hasn't changed among kids these days either. Well there's someone else who is sick and tired of this activity as well. Not because it's a chore we do day in and day out, but because of home unclean it actually is. His name is Terry the Toothbrush and he's here to let people know how germ filled and unhealthy it is to brush your teeth with the same toothbrush everyday. Being a toothbrush he's kind of an expert at knowing these facts, but not to worry, he has a solution.In these last six panels the kid has just been informed of the germs that still lurk in his toothbrush. The kid, disgusted and worried about these facts, asks what he can do about this. Terry the Toothbrush then magical reveals the Germ Terminator. That's when Terry breaks into song and dance letting people know how easy it is to use.

Character Designs

Here are a few more defined character sketches. Here are a few drawings of the kid still in his pajamas. One with him interacting with Terry the Toothbrush. Another of him just waking up and about to start his day with his least favorite routine. And finally one with him using his new Germ Terminator.These are the redesigns of Timmy the Toothbrush. Here we put his face on the brush side which gave us the option to give him a cool hair style. Utilizing present toothbrush designs we were also able to give him some more character. The grip forms most of his body while the fingertip grip makes somewhat of a heroic chest. His hands are just gloves that magical appear and float to where he needs them to be. As for legs the character can either float magical or hop around on the counter.
