So, uh, THIS was originally going to be in “Reef Blower”, or, as it was originally called, “Pilot Extension”.
Also, according to Jay Lender, here’s the real reason the episode didn’t have dialogue: https://twitter.com/JayLender1/status/1535261127549939712?s=20&t=mfAcjFm_7v9dHdyttYO-zQ
It's over 90 degrees here in Southern California this weekend, the perfect moment to post some refreshing beach scenes from a few of the promotional 2D shorts I directed for Minions: The Rise of Gru, out July 1!
I got to do a range of really cool projects at Illumination, between co-directing a theme park ride (something I'd never imagined), directing international commercials and doing a ton of these 2D Minions shorts, where you're executing one central gag, a 'classic' format I love. I think we made close to 25 of these--I lost count!
The shorts that were released here in the US didn't include the title cards, so I wanted to share of few of them here. For many of these, I drew the layout with Tidawan and Sophie Crowley, both hugely talented, doing the final color.
Most of them were made back in 2018 in preparation for the Minions: the Rise of Gru release, originally slated for...2020. They were mostly for the Chinese territories, specifically their Migu Internet Cafes, but were later repurposed for the Illumination YouTube channel, where you can watch almost all of the shorts. Some are still to be released.
And because many of the shorts don't have credits, I want to list them here.
