Had some fun painting fall colors while visiting family! I don’t usually do digital paintings like this so it was a challenge, but a nice one to turn off the storyboard brain. Miss my east coast fam so much, and all their seasons!! ❤️ #fall #digital #painting #illustration #animation

Last week we heard the official news that The Great North will not be renewed. 😔 I worked on that show for the last couple of years, so I'm REALLY on the lookout for any new storyboarding or previs opportunities. Any leads or recommendations are super appreciated- thank you! 🥹 www.mbernstel.com

Welp since the last episodes of The Great North have aired, I present to you "Desktop Memories"- a silly video I made for my team on our last day, compiled of dumb doodles and screenshots I found while deleting things off of my computer. Really miss this show and all the folks behind it! ❤️

Yay, I can finally post these cute Tobin moments I drew from last night's episode! This was the last thing I worked on, so it really felt like a love letter to all these characters I've gotten to know over the years. I really miss them and my incredible team! ❤️ #TheGreatNorth

The American film and TV industry isn’t just about entertainment. It supports thousands of good-paying union jobs, drives economic growth, and strengthens our culture. But right now, we’re facing a serious threat. 🧵

Oh hey it's May the 4th! May I share these recently found 3d boards I did for Clone Wars season 7?? This was probably one of the coolest things I got to do at Lucasfilm, I could barely believe I got to work on some of the first Maul scenes that season! #MayThe4th #StarWars #CloneWars #Ahsoka #Maul
