Talk:J. Todd Anderson

WP:ARTIST

The person has created, or played a major role in co-creating, a significant or well-known work, or collective body of work, that has been the subject of an independent book or feature-length film, or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews. Is having done storyboards for films such as Fargo, The Big Lebowski, O Brother, Where Art Thou? and others not considered having played a major role? Drinkybird (talk) 04:03, 4 June 2009 (UTC)


 * With all due respect, the significant body of work is the film and not necessarily the storyboard. I am not sure the storyboard is a significant or well-known work. BTW - I mean no disrespect by this comment, so please do not bite back.  Thanks...   ttonyb1 (talk) 04:39, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

For some movies, storyboards are going by the wayside, but the Coen brothers meet with Anderson and he plays a vital role in the visual aspects of the films. I did find an article about him working on No Country For Old Men (which I neglected to list because he was credited as Visual Supervisor) but I'm not sure how to integrate it, perhaps just cite it where I have the first citation, and move the IMBD citation to the storyboard section.

I've attempted to add to the article, putting in a section about his process of making story boards. I also added a bit about an opera he wrote and preformed. Drinkybird (talk) 23:34, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
