Self-promotion?No shame?...of course! :)



Have a great new year everybody!:D
Here ,some storyboards from the last book of Oz, the volume 3 that is going to be released this week in France. This part of the process is where I find more fun, as it is where it´s decided almost everything after the script, and you can feel you are "creating" something.

Yeah ! It's great to see the beginning of the process, before the colors! Beautiful, and very dynamic !

Why this title? ;-) Of course you should not be ashamed.
Firstly your works ARE GREAT, and then; you make living of selling your art. The more buzz, the easier your life is, the more you create.
Self-promote!

Amazing! Your sketches look greater than the best of my drawings :(
I can´t wait to see the new book.

Edu, esperando el mail de alguien...

Vincent Batignole said...

Shame? Yes ! But you are not the one who has to feel ashamed ! I can work 2, 3 or 4 month on a comics page and I will never succeed to have such a quality -_-'
But did Mr. Chauvel decide of the different frames or are you totally free to draw the scenes the way you want ?
Anyway I just can not wait to have the book ! Tomorrow: BOOKSHOP :)

Enrique Fernandez said...

Thanks! I´m glad you all like it.
I´m sorry Steve, I will do it some day, not by now. ;)
Vincent, Mr. Chauvel and I have great fun doing the three books. After the script I used to reduce the number of panels, and sometimes making too extreme the points of view of the camera.But the script, I think ,is pretty translated to the page, say a 90%.
Edu, esta semana!:D

Just ordered my copy from BDNet. Can't wait for it to arrive here in the USA! I love the first two books as well as Liberateurs. Any plans to put out a book of these wonderful roughs? I would buy one in a heartbeat!

Enrique Fernandez said...

Mr. Balistreri, you here! Great surprise! Thanks for buying my books.:D
I hope we (David Chauvel and I) could someday find someone able to publish all the rough stuff. We have tried, and we keep trying, but it´s not easy. Anyway,thanks for coming to give us your support!

Hello
I like very much the post-production stage of comic's projects too.
These storyboard are very nice, I know the good vibrations everybody feels when he begins "building a vison".
Great work :)

Hi Enrique!
I hope you will post other interesting storyboards. I'am curious to know the process from the storyboard to the concept of basic color in the comic strip table.
Thanks for sharing your artworks.

Antonio Santamaria said...

Muy bueno Enrique. Gracias por compartir con todos estos storyboards, suelen ser las primeras visualizaciones del guión... ¿no? Son muy buenos!
Por cierto, ¿y ahora, tras el Mago de Oz, vacaciones o ya estás trabajando en algo nuevo?

Enrique Fernandez said...

Trabajando Antonio, trabajando!
Y deprisa! Espero poder colgar imágenes pronto.

Unknown said...

En cuánto salga el tercero para la cole!! deseoso de ver más cosas tuyas :)

Poly Bernatene said...

Genial Enrique! No hay muchas palabras más para describir lo que siento al recorrer tu blog, te felicito, tu obra es exelente!
Hace un tiempo atrás un amigo me mostró un libro del Mago de OZ y quedé maravillado, me encantó descubrir tu blog porque en Argentina es dificil conseguir material de Francia y espero ansioso que edites pronto en España. Igualmente me pondré en campaña para conseguir Los Libertadores.
Muchas gracias por compartir todo este material!
Te mando un cordial abrazo desde el otro lado del charco!!

Solo leo felicitaciones y alagos, y creo que no es para menos. El trabajo de dibujo, composición, color, puesta en escena, TODO, es muy muy bueno (Me encanta la visión cinematografica que tienes sin tener que perder el estilo propio). Solo tengo una pega (Y me consta que no es culpa tuya) en la edición de Libertadores en español (La de Glenat) estan los tono muy oscuros, pero cuando digo oscuros es muy muy oscuro. Cuesta leer el comic si no tienes una luz muy cerca. Por lo demas, Enrique eres un "mostruo". Esperaremos tus trabajos aqui en españa como hienas.
