Nathanael Lark

Illustrator/Storyboard Artist

Burbank, CA, USA
I place an emphasis on story and emotional connection in my work. From preliminary sketches and design all the way through to a finished illustration; I'm vigilant in looking for ways to make the image resonate with the viewer.

That theme of connection carries over into my working relationships as well. I place a high priority on communication, collaboration and creating great relationships.

Relativity Media

Illustrator

Working closely with the producers and creators of the game show American Bible Challenge I created key illustrations for on-screen use. The illustrations were incorporated into life size game pieces which live contestants moved around a large board. I combined traditional hand ink drawings and Adobe Photoshop for splashes of color.

Fame Films

Storyboard Artist

The title and story details of this film are under a NDA.
I created feature film storyboards for inclusion in the film's pitch. The scenes were heavily action based with an emphasis on perspective and clear camera direction. It was also a stated objective that scale be given special attention in the boards to match reality as closely as possible. I worked closely with the Director to ensure that all objectives were met and I completed the work on deadline.
