Last moments in L.A.

After a couple of meetings with Hollywood people, we got down to creating wheat paste posters and fine-art silkscreens at John Carr’s studio.

Images were taken from Issues 3 and 4 and combined or isolated to compose these prints. This is printed on an existing test print of another artist’s print = collabo print!

The working system in Hollywood is something like this: one person performs a task and 40 or 50 people watch him. In this case we only had 3 or 4 in the audience when John taped off the screen.

Demonstrating the roller technique for applying a medium-large wheat paste poster.

Here’s how they do it on the back lot of Universal (enter Lankershim Blvd.)

Notice the people standing around as Eva pulls on a rung on the terrace. It was supposed to break off in her hand and then (in post) cut to a stunt person falling onto an airbag. This was surprisingly difficult to do and took an hour or two.

The view of the video tap monitor. Here’s Kyle McLachlan and Dana Delany discussing a letter of great import…

Transit from Tokyo to San Diego Comicon, Day 1 (July 22, ’09)

Posted on 07.22.09 under Uncategorized

Made it here, it was a bit of a stress test. After Tokyo Tower flashed by, traffic was very bad from Rainbow Bridge to Urayasu (Tokyo Disneyland) — I suspect a fender-bender.

There was supposed to be a total eclipse of the sun visible today in Japan, but as you can see when it rains, no eclipse visible on ground level.

It took just under 2 hours to get to Narita and then…. We discovered we had forgotten something… Many phone calls and much stress later we figured out a solution. But Isaac would have to fly standby on the next flight and in SF, wait all afternoon for the 6PM flight to SD. So he’ll miss Preview Night. But it turned out fine and hopefully a lesson was learned.

Here are a few preliminary shots of San Diego.

This is also a Navy town…
