So as another way to try to get into comics and to make contacts is podcasting.
I co-host a podcast called “Constructing Comics” with my friend Noah Ray (the artist on our books RX-tiction, Life Cycle and Orryx, and Where 4RU (part of the “My Kingdom for a Panel Anthology -coming soon to Kickstarter in April of 2019!)
As we reach the 25th episode, recording this week – we have done interviews, complete issue review, page breakdowns, comic related movies previews. I am not going to lie the first couple are rough, but we are getting better. We now operate off a script and outline which help – not to say um…. too many times, and pause to think about what I should say next.
We have social media relate sites where were share images from stuff we talk about and links to the people we interview.
A lot of times we go in-depth on page design and story telling, which is our unique angle in the comic podcasting world.
It’s been a lot of learning; technical knowhow and getting comfortable in front to the mic, but it’s been a lot of fun, and meeting a lot of great people who just want to make comics as well.
Podcast about comics really got me back into comics. I listen to a lot. I also like to listen to podcasting about writing- to try to improve my craft.
