Halo 2 storyboards

As I began working on the Halo 2 boards, it was clear that the script was not quite ready for shooting boards. You'll see by the sheer volume of boards, that they were going through many script revisions at Bungie. I probably ended up boarding the entire cinematic script two to three times. In light of this, I opted to present them in a quick, hybrid storyboard/comic panel style.
I emphasize the word 'quick' to hopefully forgive some of my embarrassingly poor figures. I drew these directly in pen to remove the temptation of erasing and redrawing them until they looked good to me. The purpose of these boards was simple communication, not to display on a wall.
Back then, the Arbiter was still called Dervish, and the updated Cortana was described to me as like a naked female hologram, which I clearly took literally.
I was still freelance at this point and working remotely. In fact, at one point, I did not receive payment from Microsoft for six months. Even with an agent, chasing up money was one of the many pitfalls of being freelance. My advice to younger freelancers out there - pay your estimated taxes and set some money aside for inevitable billing snafus.
