I got an interesting comment on the 1 or 3 rough draft video and my other motion comics (Video Below) and it talked about how they felt the music overpowered the images. This is a very interesting idea as I felt that animation on its own would feel dull with no sound. With the music, however, it complements the animation while creating an opportunity where no sound effects or voiceovers are needed since the music works as the audio track.

If you want to post your comic book on YouTube my recommendation is to go ahead and use video editing software to show each panel in sequence and have background music to enhance the experience (making motion comics).  If you have the skill or can afford to hire someone voice overs are always nice, but need to be top quality or else they distract more than improve the video.  I feel

The plan is in two days on March 6, 2012 I will be attempting to create a motion comic in under 48 hours. The first question you might ask is why I would do this? The answer is… I am attempting to raise money via kickstarter.com for an online graphic novel. According to my friends Melissa and Loyal, it is important to have a video with any fundraising attempts through Kickstarter because it helps to add visual appeal and shows commitment to potential funders.

During the 48 hour time span I will also be posting YouTube videos of my progress. The plan is to shoot a video and post it every 12 hours. Feel free to follow along with me in real time or if you’re reading this in the future you can watch these videos as I will post them on this blog.
