Astonishing Xmen Motion Comic: Gifted
lewl the funniest stuff I've see in a while.
THE SCRIPT IS GOLD
+ Best voice acting I've encountered for a while.
limited animation brought back to life by Continuity Studios,
taking John Cassaday's artwork, cutting and pasting it, to a what seems like 2.5D platform haha.
in between 2D and 3D.
Writer - Joss Whedon, and may I dare say, sci fi, comic GENIUS!
To be honest, you would think, what is the point of making motion comics?
- comic book fans growing up in the 60s have nostalgia for going down to the comic shop with 50c to by the paper, flicking through the pages only to be constantly knocked back with cliff hanger endings <3
- new gen comic readers, have the whole digital ipad comic readers, or just on your PC.
so this in between platform, somewhat resembling paper cut outs and a radio play is ....peculiar
But for me, it actually worked.
By downplaying the animation, you concentrate much more on the script/plot, and you seriously realise the importance of sound effects drawing you into the comic world.
