Comic Mint, your best source for Simpsons animation art, is pleased to offer our collectors this original production storyboard from the classic seventh season episode "A Fish Called Selma" (1996).
This is one of the most requested scenes we receive from collectors, Troy McClure on stage with Dr. Zaius from the musical "Stop the Planet of the Apes, I Want to Get Off!".
This is a true gem, THE PIVOTAL STORYBOARD PAGE from arguably one of the greatest sequences ever, and there are no others !!!!
Until now, these unique pieces of Simpsons history have remained locked away in the vaults of the Twentieth Century Fox studio, unseen by the public.
This storyboard is rendered in graphite and coloured pencil on a sheet of Film Roman storyboard paper measuring 8.5” x 14” inches.
The page is numbered 75, and features the characters with the scripted dialogue, along with hand-written production/scene notes. The storyboard has the official FOX gold seal on the back (lower right corner) and is accompanied with the Twentieth Century Fox ‘Collector’s Portfolio’ certificate of authenticity.
We have also provided screenshots from the scenes, to show as reference where the storyboard panels were used in the making of this episode, which appear on screen near the 11:14 mark.
ABOUT STORYBOARDS:
Storyboards are the first step in the animation production process, and are an integral part in the making of this episode.
Each storyboard involves a massive creative effort, detailing, shot by shot, how the production team take their ideas for each episode and turn them into the anarchic animation we all know and love.
These pages also provide us with hilarious insights into the making of the show, along with full script annotations.
