Tony was hired by The New York Times Magazine to help bring this project to life. Initially, the publication planned to work solely with an illustrator, but they quickly realized the historians' accounts, while fascinating, lacked the visual storytelling needed to engage readers. Tony was brought in to design and stage each story through detailed storyboards, transforming historical narratives into compelling visual sequences. 

Tony is publishing two books with Simon & Schuster/Arcturus Publishing.

His coloring book, Fast Cars, will be available in stores in November 2026, followed by Storyboard Process Book: How to Create Storyboards for Action, slated for release in January 2027.

Watch like a fan. Learn like a filmmaker.
Every Saturday on the Action Lab Discord server, Tony screens the scenes that shaped his career as a storyboard artist and filmmaker—and breaks down how they work. Discover the secrets behind staging bold, dynamic action sequences and leave inspired to create your own. The Saturday Action Lab is completely free and happens every Saturday at 11 a PST on his Discord Server The Action Lab with Tony Liberatore.  Join us in the Saturday Action Lab Stage.

Tony will be appearing on a panel at the LightBox Expo 2026 this fall.

In October 2024, Tony joined Spiro Razatos, the action director behind Fast & Furious, Venom, Kong: Skull Island, and Captain America, for a Drawing American discussion on the film industry and the vital role storyboards play in action filmmaking.

Watch the discussion here. (Discussion begins at 16:31.)
