  • Killing The Grizzly #4: The Digital Comics Business Model

    The Digital Comics Business Model – Getting Started I struggled with whether I should actually call this article “The Digital Comics Business Model”, because, ultimately, EVERY single Killing the Grizzly article will be precisely this,and what’s the point of having to sub-subtitle every article because I stupidly choose too overly-generic a main subtitle (KILLING THE [...]

  • The Septagon Briefing #7: Writing

    Septagon asked me if I might consider writing something about actually writing a comic, especially for those who are new at writing comic scripts.

    PART 1 – EVERYONE PASSES “GO”: THE BREAKING OF A MONOPOLY “THE HIBERNATION PERIOD IS OVER, IT’S TIME TO MAKE SOME SOUP. The bear has awakened, and it needs to be killed. Not later, now.

SUPERARE – A Motion Comic

SUPERARE – A Motion Comic

At Septagon Studios we are always looking for new and innovative ways of producing comics. Although motion comics have been around for a little while now, it is interesting to see the medium continually evolve. I found Superare to be an interesting experimental motion comic created by Amo Tarzi. I think the look of the comic and the video orientation was very effective. When watching it on a desktop computer it is probably best to set the video player at full screen so the full video will fit on your monitor. It’s even better if you have an iPad because Amo has made the layout of the comic suited for the iPad and available at the Apple App Store.

SUPERARE (from lat. “to get over”, “to hurdle”) is a motion comic about a man who after losing his wife in a tragical accident now dithers between coming to terms with his past and it taking him over!
