Caesar Gets A Beatdown in Drummond's 'Rise of the Planet of the Apes' storyboards

W is for Warren Drummond
Caesar is a pretty tough little ape, but he wasn't always that way. A ape named "Rocket" pretty much wiped the floor with the "Nancy-Boy" in Rise of the Planet of the Apes. Warren Drummond's storyboards help show the action.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes (2011) has some incredible action scenes and one of the artists that worked on it was Warren Drummond (A Beautiful Mind, X-Men: First Class, Die Hard: With a Vengeance).

Official Synopsis:
A single act of both compassion and arrogance leads to a war unlike any other — and to the RISE OF THE PLANET OF THE APES. The Oscar-winning visual effects team that brought to life the worlds of Avatar and Lord of the Rings is breaking new ground, creating a CGI ape that delivers a dramatic performance of unprecedented emotion and intelligence, and epic battles on which rest the upended destinies of man and primate. 
Starring: James Franco, Freida Pinto, John Lithgow, Brian Cox, Tom Felton, and Andy Serkis
The video below is a compilation of storyboards from his site.
Director Rupert Wyatt specified that Ceasar POV shots be included so the audience feels what it’s like to move like Ceasar. - Dummond
