Reasonably Blogged: Episode 428

Tuesday, May 13, 2008

Read the comic here.

I figured since not everyone reads the blog, I should put up a quick strip explaining the delay.

Geoffrey said...: If there's gonna be a delay, do you want more reader mail for people to submit? I'm pretty sure you could do some filler strips that way if it's that important to you to do a certain special effect a certain way.

Maybe you should reconsider the CGI approach, they're getting good enough at it that they can do better than real life sometimes. ;-)

Or how about a "reasonably clever faked special effect"? Hmmm?; May 13, 2008 8:57 AM
Geoffrey said...: One thing I thought of is that you could just put in a temporary filler graphic, and create the real special effect when weather finally permits.

It doesn't matter that you'll have to come back and change it, as long as you link in the filler special effect with it's replacement later on when you actually can put the replacement effect in.

It really sucks to see a comic delayed by "weather not permitting" ...; May 13, 2008 9:02 AM
