Art & Story 35 – The Big Crisis Call
April 22, 2008 by Jerzy
Filed under Art & Story, Podcast
In response to a listener email, Mark and I discuss what we generally talk about during our “Crisis Calls”–examples and techniques we use to talk one another back into drawing comics. We also discuss how we manage to get back to work despite periods of ennui, and how emotional turmoil can be fodder for future comics stories. Even ones featuring space monsters and silly action.
Not much talk about Comics mechanics or theory, but a part of the artistic process, nonetheless.
Also, the latest episode of our comic, The Galactic League of Marshals, began updating this week!

Another good podcast. You guys have been on a roll lately. The tip about having a lot of projects at different stages was a good idea that I’ll definitely try.
Also, I wanted to note that the crisis tips you provide are applicable to any creative endeavor. For example, I do theoretical physics for my day job, and me and my co-workers have these types of discussions all the time.
