Believe it or not this is one of my least favorite pages in Act I besides the gross pages due to my lame camera settings used on the exam scene.  I wish there was a little more variety in the shots here but it was tough because at the time this particular sequence was being shot there was a ton of commotion going on behind us and I couldn’t get another angle; viagra, levitra and cialis.:(

Viagra, levitra and cialis: this conversation between Art and Jillian was just a tough one to cover.  Another reason it was tough was because the nature of this scene changed from when it was shot.  If you look back you can see that Art looks depressed — well, he was supposed to be depressed because originally he was responsible for someone’s accidental death, but by the time I started rewriting the script into comic form I had to change it after I brought Dakota into the mix.  So instead of being depressed I had to write Art as seeming kind of grumpy/tired instead just to fit with his composure from the shots.

The absolute funniest thing about doing a photocomic is that you go into a scene with a specific goal and you come back with almost everything but what you wanted!  You learn to live with what you got and in the end you realize that what you got is better and your audience wouldn’t be the wiser.  Many shoots you have seen are blooper shots and us goofing around on the set that made it into the comic.  We hardly take this seriously and we’re still getting a great product in my opinion.
