Apartment 3-G, 11/8/04

Then they came for the nosy, meddling brunettes, but I was not a nosy, meddling brunette, so I did not speak out.

    A friend of mine in Baltimore just forwarded me a link to the Baltimore Sun’s comics survey. Despite living over 3,000 miles away, I immediately filled it in, voting for all of the soap-opera strips. If they go away, IRTCSYDHT will never be the same! Josh, I think you should implore your readers, wherever they may be, to cast their ballots for Mary Worth, Apartment 3-G, The Phantom, and the rest of ‘em.

    Wow, extreme violation of the 180-degree rule. More cartoonists should take film classes apparently.

    180 degree rule is a film direction thingy — the people in the action form an axis and the camera shouldn’t cross it or else you get what happened in the second and third frames — guy with cap is on right side of panel and then is on left side of panel. it disorients the viewer and undermines the sense of coherent physical space on screen. or on panel. (another benefit of following the 180 degree rule is there will be some objects shared in the background from shot to shot; in the last panel you lose the brick wall which was orienting the characters in space.)

    and i notice the meddlesome brunette still has great no-hands, bare-thighed, mini-skirted trunk ingress and egress skills. and her head vibrates. remind me to do a pervy google search on that.
