Napoleon Outwits the Devil

It’s taken some time to refine but here is my final board from Matt Bordenave’s Storyboard Revisionist Bootcamp on Warrior Art Camp this past winter!

The assignment was to grab any favorite scene from animation, live action, or video game and reboard that scene. I chose an excerpt from the audiobook of Outwitting the Devil by Napoleon Hill. A really cool book that has Napoleon interviewing the Devil to get him to confess his ways of controlling people.

I learned a ton and got some good mileage in. My thought process changed and I learned to envision having more fun with my work without so much pressure. My class was a blast and I miss those guys!

Thanks Matt for being a dope instructor and all your feedback!
