The Blue Sky Test

This was the test given to applicants for the story department at Blue Sky Studios. The artist is given 4 characters with set designs (a cat, a dog, an old woman, and a boy scout), a scenario (the cat is stuck in the tree), and a board limit (60 or less). The amount of characters used does not matter, but the cat must get down by the end of the sequence.
