Comic Mint, your best source for Simpsons animation art, is pleased to offer SIMPSONS fans this original set of three production storyboards (pages 68, 69, 70, 71, 72 and 73) from the classic SIMPSONS episode # "I Am Furious Yellow" (2002). Until now these pieces have remained locked away in the vaults of the Twentieth Century Fox studio, unseen by the public. A unique piece of Simpsons history.
Storyboards are the first step in the animation process. The production team use them to determine exactly how they want that episode to look, and a massive creative effort is put into the storyboards. These pages are crammed with hilarious insights into the making of the show, along with full script annotation and even deleted scenes that never made it to the screen. The joy of these is in the detail. Holding a set of storyboards and seeing that scene on screen is a fantastic feeling. Each Storyboard measures 14? x 8.5? inches. Each of the story panels on the pages measure approximately 2?" x 2?" inches in width. These unique storyboards are an integral part of the production process and were used in the making of this episode. Each storyboard details, shot by shot, how the production team take their ideas for each episode and turn them into the anarchic animation we all know and love.
EPISODE SYNOPSIS: Springfield Elementary finally gets a career day speaker that keeps the children's interest. The creator of cartoon inspires the children to come up with their own cartoon characters. Bart makes an initial comic strip of "Danger Dude," which he shows to the Comic Book Guy and Marvel Comics creator Stan Lee who happens to stop by the comic book shop, but never leaves. Their feedback leads Bart to search for other inspiration, which he finds in his own father. He makes Homer the main character in a comic that he calls "Angry Dad". It becomes very popular and an Internet company wants to make "Angry Dad" an Internet cartoon. They offer Bart stock in return for use of his strip. "Angry Dad" becomes even more popular, but when Homer sees it at work, he goes home very angry. The citizens of Springfield, who see him in his car angry, try to make him angrier to see what he'll do. The family realizes that Homer has anger management issues. Homer resolves to take it easy, leaving Bart without any material. Bart sets an elaborate trap to anger the now sedate Homer. Bart finds out that the Internet company has gone bankrupt and doesn't need his new material, just as Homer takes the bait for the trap. Homer gets green with anger, a la The Incredible Hulk and it turns out Bart has saved Homer's life; since the pent up rage would have killed him.
This is a one-of-a-kind image, there are NO others! The storyboard has both an embossed FOX logo in the lower right corner, as well as a gold FOX seal on the back of the storyboard (lower right corner) and is accompanied by the Twentieth Century Fox certificate of authenticity. The artwork is in pristine condition, SUPERB !!!
