About Mark Simon

The Godfather of Storyboarding.and author.and speaker. I am a story artist and director. I can work as a local story artist.no matter where in the world you are located. I am the story artist on The Walking Dead, Stranger Things, Dexter and Woody Woodpecker.(I've got range, baby!) My latest book is Attacked, a memoir of when my family and I were attacked at our house and I became the first person in the country to hold parents responsible for the actions of their kids in a court of law. When storyboarding, I don't have to leave my office and you have instant access to me and you don't have travel expenses (but I enjoy working on location as well). CHECK OUT the VIDEO below to see how easy it is for us to work together virtually and be Covid-19 safety compliant. Benefits of working with me:* Extensive experience in virtually every medium * Fast. Extremely fast.* I figure out how to work with you, not the other way around * Instant delivery of storyboards and animatics in multiple formats * Working digitally makes changes incredibly fast * As a director myself, I can help you create the best shots.* I literally wrote the book on storyboarding,"Storyboards: Motion In Art" Director Louis Koerner from Ireland said,"Once again, a tour de force of telling imagery. Greatly appreciate your invaluable assistance in making sense of all of our madness!" I've worked in the entertainment industry for over 35 years on over productions. I have also written books and hundreds of articles on the industry. I have storyboarded on projects like Stranger Things, The Walking Dead, Black Lightning, Creepshow, Dynasty, Cult of Chucky, Little Rascals, Woody Woodpecker, The Waterboy, Spielberg's seaQuest DSV and more.
