A Few Good Men: Director's Cut


With this being re-run season at Halos Heaven, here is the "A Few Good Men" comic re-done using another program.

I was trying something out for next season and I needed a test file...here's the output:

Good production values

But if it were a question of preferred format, I’d much rather read the comic strips in their original form. Just in case you were solicitous of opinion.

Yes, I'm looking for opinions.

I was checking out a software program and needed a file. The comics will stay the same, but I might be able to do some other things with this program.

Thanks.

Maybe the best comics

should get this kind of treatment. I thought it was awesome!

I prefer the original format.

It was a little long, and the music was distracting. Maybe I’m just slow, but a couple of times, I couldn’t read a whole text box before it panned to the next one. But I’d be interested to see what else you could use the software for.

No matter what happens from here on, it has been a great season.

Keep using this software for certain comics,

like Doyers, skanks, chowds, etc…keep the original format for the rest. Now I want to go watch the final court scene, lol.

First we had a Salmon and now we have a Trout, let's see the same results.

Interesting, but less effective as it stands compared to the original format.

Your video creates a specific pacing. For me, that pacing is much slower than the normal format, and waiting for the scrolling just makes all the graphic and musical wrappings a distraction.

If I may, I might suggest that you shorten the intro to speed up the access to the content, and then deliver each frame sequentially rather than scrolling. You could use whatever music selected to punctuate the frame change, which could ADD to the epxerience. And I might also suggest reading the balloons into the audio track to define the pace, but that will require some acting chops on your part!

Love your work, Wi!

Rev needs to give you a raise

Now there's a hole in the sky
And if the ground's not cold
Everything is gonna burn
We'll all take turns, I'll get mine too...

Are you using camtasia?

Or is it some sort of motion comic software? It is a little awkward in this format. If you’ve seen any motion comics, that might be a format you want to look at, less panning and more cuts from panel to panel.

Dig your comic btw.

Semi on and off topic

The Angels still need to do a clip of this movie whenever they do a “Code Red”.

Cruise: Did you order the Code red?
Nicholson: I did my job and I’d do it again!
Cruise: DID YOU ORDER THE CODE RED???
Nicholson: YOU’RE [DARN] RIGHT I DID!!!!!

cut to Rally Monkey, and put “Code Red” on the signage
