AN ANIMATED LIFE
LANE LUERAS
Storyboard Artist / Director / Animator
ABOUT ME
I am an Animator/ Director/ Storyboard Artist that fell in love with film and animation when I was a kid and just never grew up.
When I'm not working on a specific project you'll find me at home working on personal projects or with my family.
MY WORK
My experience in storyboarding and telling stories through animation is something that I've been perfecting for 20 years.
I love experimenting with new techniques that offer a new look or challenges me to tell the best story.

ANIMATICS
The following artwork (animatics) is my work. The drawings, the color, the timing and the selection of music (which I do not own) are all mine. There is an animatic trailer that I have put together under personal Animatics in the menu at the top of my site. I encourage you to take a look at it. This showcases a sort of personal project. All one has to do is email me for the password and it shall be granted. HA, that sounds like a line out of a movie. I did have an editor help me put these together but other than that, it is all my work.
PLEASE ENJOY!
