Patrick McHale (artist)

thumb|Patrick McHale in 2014 Patrick "Pat" McHale (November 17, 1983) is an American writer, storyboard artist, animator, songwriter, and independent filmmaker. Quotes I had a lot of growing pains adjusting to the comic book writing format. The whole writing process just didn’t make sense to me. I had to somehow construct each panel just by describing it? But how many panels to a page? How much dialogue should be in each panel? How much time should pass between each panel? All these sorts of things were mind-boggling to me. By the end of writing the script, I sort of figured out some of my mistakes. EXCLUSIVE: Patrick McHale Talks Bringing Over The Garden Wall to Cartoon Network and BOOM! Studious (October 13, 2014) I think whenever you write something you want people to like it. The best way to do that, usually, is to write what you think is good. That’s basically what everyone tries to do… just to write what they think is good. Part of that is staying true to the characters and the world (which makes it a kids show by it’s design)... and part of that is introducing deeper concepts that we, as writers, are curious about exploring (which makes it more interesting for adults).
