This is page 3 from a 4-page adaption of a storyboard I did
for Marek Buchwald in 1990. Marek had been the background designer or director
on several series I had story boarded at DIC in the late 80’s (ALF, ALFTails, The
Real Ghostbuster, Kidd Video, Little Golden Book Land, Maxie’s World).
This storyboard was for an episode of the TV series, “Long
Ago and Far Away”. To quote Wikipedia; “’Long Ago and Far Away’ is a television
series that aired on PBS Television from 1989 to 1993.
Marek is an interesting dude, though I only learned this
while doing cursory research for this blog. According to his website: “Born in
Tashkent, Uzbekistan –Central Asia /foothills of the Himalayas, Marek Buchwald
grew up absorbing the richness and aesthetic of the many cultures who left
their mark on this Silk Road marketplace, the beauty of ancient Islamic
architecture and tilework and the color and old world craftsmanship of Uzbeki
and Himalayan tribal peoples.”

At the time, I didn’t know any of this. Marek was a pleasant
man but kept his own business, at least as far as I was concerned.
I am including my storyboards off of which I based this
comic-book page. (To be continued)
