December Wolves: From Fabletown With Love

Nothing was coming yesterday or today and I'd bought Cinderella: From Fabletown With Love #2 of 6 with the purpose of reviewing it for that other place which I don't currently want to name a couple weeks ago. Unfortunately, by the time their schedule and mine coincided, the review wouldn't be timely, so here is my "exclusive" review of Cinderella: From Fabletown With Love #2 of 6.

This marks the first time cutting and pasting portions of multiple takes were made in one of these videos. Yep. Cutting edge of technology there. If you're wondering what the design of the shirt is, it's a Converge shirt, with art by their vocalist, Jake Bannon.

Eleven Names Strides Boldly Into 2008.

This is me talking about comics with a camera recording it. There should probably be a script. There isn't. I should probably think about lighting. I didn't. I just went out (well, went in) and did. One of the things two writers said was important was having a real deadline and coming back out there swinging next time.

I promise I'll come out swinging next time. Whether there will be a script or not, I don't know. The one on the top has lesser production values, that is to say, I was using a point and shoot camera bought in 2005 to record the video. The one on bottom was done with the video camera in my laptop and thus has much higher quality in terms of visuals. That said, I didn't do as many takes, so it's not as cogently voiced as the first.

There will be more of these in the future. I can't be more specific because I can't see in the future and my physical writing about comics is for the moment, promised elsewhere that insists on things like content exclusivity. The beat goes on. This is just a way to keep that beat going at a faster pace.
