Bathroom sink layout, from Like Liz and Beth ©1999 Abigail Goldsmith. This was the layout for the longest scene in the film, and it was later colored in Photoshop, like the other layouts. I did not color the animated characters due to a lack of time. They were cleaned up and Alpha-channeled in Photoshop, and appeared as black-and-white figures over the light-colored backgrounds. |

Bathroom floor layout, from Like Liz and Beth ©1999 Abigail Goldsmith. To some extent, I based this bathroom on the actual bathroom in a friend's house. |
 |
Finale layout, from Like Liz and Beth ©1999 Abigail Goldsmith. It's not easy to pull off a far-shot (or a wide angle camera shot) in a small room. |

Designs in an older style (top row and bottom left), and some character designs and concept art from Like Liz and Beth ©1999 Abigail Goldsmith (bottom right). The geeky dancing girl is an early design of Greta, the high school student. The cheerleaders shown are the way they were in the film. |

The cheerleader near the top is from Like Liz and Beth ©1999 Abigail Goldsmith. The gawky-looking kid is from Seeing is Believing ©1998 Abigail Goldsmith. |

Alien concepts #1 from
Eat Your Brains. You may recognize some warped versions of aliens from my
Yeresunsa saga,
and a few from the Creatures
sub-section of my gallery.

 |
Alien concepts #2 from
Eat Your Brains. The big one in the center is an early concept of the human sympathizer's girlfriend.
|

Alien concepts #3 from
Eat Your Brains. Most of these were used in the film as background characters.

 |
Mermwug, from
Eat Your Brains. Here's the human sympathizer. His shorts have the word
"humans" written all over them, with little hearts. He hides this article of clothing inside his trenchcoat.
|
 |
The Waiter, from
Eat Your Brains. The film was spoken in an alien language with English subtitles
(hey, it's a foreign film, right?). The humor of this waiter was that he was grunting
obscenities spoken in English, which translated to some very polite subtitles.
|
 |
Agent No. 2, from
Eat Your Brains. You know good cop, bad cop? This would be the bad cop.
|
 |
Alien City concept, from
Eat Your Brains. Unfortunately, I didn't use this in the film.
|
 |
Los Angeles street corner, from
Eat Your Brains. This is the trap where aliens lure innocent humans with signs of free food.

Prop Designs. The space vehicles and drink machine are from
Eat Your Brains.
