<br />
Here it is folks. I've been working on this for way too long.<br />
<br />
I did this on after effects which was actually pretty easy once I got the hang of it. It's basically photoshop with motion.<br />
<br />
I really have to thank Datu Gallaga for helping me put this together. He got me the music and awesome sound you hear throughout the piece. And I also have to thank the beautiful people of Digitrax who actually created all the music and the sound effects.<br />
<br />
Of course, I also have to thank my darling wife for helping me out with the edit.<br />
<br />
So here it is! I hope you like and share it!<br />

<br />
After two years, Book Two is finally done.<br />
<br />
Thank you, my readers, for your patience.<br />
<br />
I really tried to push myself in terms of art and storytelling. I believe that this book represents the best that I can do with the meager skill that I have.<br />
<br />
I hope that you enjoy it.<br />

Here's a second stab at a Marvel try-out. You see, the first time I tried out I intentionally avoided looking at the original artist's work - which was a mistake. I should have looked because his pages were so much more awesome.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In these pages, I knew the level that I had to reach and hence, I believe there's been a big jump in quality. That and, well, I've been experimenting with new techniques since I drew the last pages.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I'll be applying these new techniques on FHL book II. That's why there's going to be a delay in the release of the second book. I'll make it as good as I can possibly make it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Now all I can do is hope that my sample pages are good enough.</div>

</div><div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">C.B. Cebulski, the head talent scout of Marvel, liked my work on FHL enough to ask me to send him sample pages using Marvel heroes.</div><div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"><br />
</div><div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">To that end, he sent me four sample marvel scripts to see how I'd handle them.</div><div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"><br />
</div><div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">Once I received his email, I just couldn't sit still. I felt equal parts fear and excitement - like a teenage boy on the verge of telling his crush that he liked her.</div><div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"><br />
</div><div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">The four scenes were challenging to say the least. The samples came from X-force, two different Daredevil comicbooks and a Secret Avengers script.</div><div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"><br />
</div><div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">The X-force script had a bunch of a characters that I was unfamiliar with, the Secret Avengers was difficult to understand which left me with the two Daredevil scripts. </div><div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"><br />
</div><div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">The first one was Daredevil versus Captain America and the the second, Daredevil versus the Spot at a wedding.</div><div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"><br />
</div><div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">I decided on the wedding scene just to give myself an easier time. It may sound like a copout but my nerves were already on high-alert and I needed to find a way to "level the playing the field," as it were.</div><div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"><br />
</div><div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">The first page was the most daunting but once I got over that hump, things ran a little more smoothly. It took about three drafts - yes, I know, it's such a simple page but when you're drawing with such high-stakes, believe me, it's intimidating.</div><div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"><br />
</div><div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">Then I just kind of hammered out the rest. I sent them as quickly as I could because, even though C.B. didn't give me a deadline, I didn't want to take longer than a week to get back to him. The paranoid part of me imagined a secret deadline.</div><div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;"><br />
</div><div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">And now it's done. It was thrilling and incredible to be so close to your childhood dream.

I just had an awesome experience over the weekend. I got to meet Senior VP of Creative & Creator Development of Marvel Comics, C.B Cebulski, for a possible gig at Marvel.<br />
<br />
For my portfolio, I just submitted some pages from FHL and I didn't have any time at all to draw any Marvel heroes.<br />
<br />
I was shocked that he actually wanted to see me because I didn't think that my style was something that they'd be looking for.<br />
<br />
Needlessly I was as giddy as a little girl. This is the output of that giddiness. More silliness to come.<br />
<br />
And don't worry, I'm still working very hard getting at Book 2 completed. I've completed 115 fully-inked pages. I've got 35 to go. It should be out about July.pfabhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12619599853946692661noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4049806224674867276.post-90816936829014708062011-09-08T19:06:00.000+08:002011-09-08T19:06:47.711+08:00Visprint WIT 2011<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgygYSa9IW61mTDypRlHSHspoVckgXDXWjZeiMSRmCnJjAvTYPkMzm-ai-QwR5V5ou93oZIpQP7uQ9ROL1qhnVfgGxwOqVYFQOhpMoqvDDFUiTyz-tCUGvWe0QEomuVEbbtvklCvuSywDI/s1600/visprint%252Bwit%252Bsched.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgygYSa9IW61mTDypRlHSHspoVckgXDXWjZeiMSRmCnJjAvTYPkMzm-ai-QwR5V5ou93oZIpQP7uQ9ROL1qhnVfgGxwOqVYFQOhpMoqvDDFUiTyz-tCUGvWe0QEomuVEbbtvklCvuSywDI/s320/visprint%252Bwit%252Bsched.jpg" width="228" /></a></div><br />
Come this Saturday (September 10) to Visprint's Annual Reader's Event - WIT! It'll be at the SMX Convention Center. I'll be talking about how advertising helped me create the FHL. Also giving talks - Budjette Tan, Kajo Baldisimo, Carlo Vergara, and Manix Abrera.<br />
<br />
The event starts at 9am but my talk starts at 10am. After the talk, I'll be there to sign books and maybe some doodling until the event ends.<br />
<br />
I hope to see you there.pfabhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12619599853946692661noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4049806224674867276.post-32431268818908469872011-08-15T13:38:00.001+08:002011-08-15T13:40:59.700+08:00ORDER YOUR OWN COPY OF FHL ONLINECan't find The Filipino Heroes League in your nearest bookstore?

</div>When I couldn't find Tan's and Baldisimo's <i>Trese</i> in the Graphic Novel section in Fully Booked and discovered it in the Filipiniana Section, I railed - I saw it as literary apartheid. Why couldn't Trese share some shelf space with Captain America? My main issue against this stemmed from the fact that fans of the Graphic Novel will never stray to the Filipiniana section thereby cutting off our books to our target market. In the current setup, one would have to be looking for a Filipino Graphic Novel to be able to find it; it denies the casual browser to discover something new and Filipino in his/her genre of interest.<br />
<br />
Researching further into this, however, I discovered that the situation was not as black and white as I thought and that, at times, there were distinct advantages to being segregated in such a way.<br />
<br />
The strengths and weaknesses of the Filipiniana Section are totally dependent on the brand of bookstore and even the particular branch of that bookstore. Generally, one would find that in Fully Booked (FB), it could be seen as a disadvantage while in National Bookstore (NB), it could be seen as quite a big plus.<br />
<br />
The FB in Greenhills tucked the Filipiniana section in the back wall of the second floor - between the kids section and the special interest books; not the usual place you'd find comic book fans. It was this particular bookstore that initially got me all riled up about this subject.<br />
<br />
However, even in FB, not all Filipiniana Sections are created equal. The former layout of the Rockwell FB allowed for a totally separate shelf for Filipino Graphic Novels in its Filipiniana Section - it looked like a holy shrine to the gods of the Filipino graphic novel. It was a thing of beauty.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately, Rockwell FB has since changed layout and the Filipiniana section no longer figures as prominent a space compared to their Graphic Novel Section. However, the opposite is true for most National Bookstores.<br />
<br />
In a lot NB's, the Graphic Novel Section is a disorganized blob of books thrown on a table, literally. It is not the ideal place for any graphic novel, much less a Filipino graphic novel! It's not even on a shelf!<br />
<br />
However, NB's setup for their Filipiniana sections are vastly different. I know that in NB Shangri-La, it's the very first shelf you see as you enter. Again, as in FB, it's different everywhere and it changes from branch to branch. Nevertheless, one does get the impression that NB gives more importance to Filipino publications as they regularly put up encouraging signs like this in their stores:<br />

</div>In the end, I discovered that there was no deep-seated racial conspiracy nor was there really any malice in the segregation. It all comes down to what the book store thinks will sell and optimizing their shelves to that end. Given that Filipino books are vastly outnumbered, it's an advantage that they can be found in their separate section lest they be swallowed up by the ocean of foreign publications.<br />
<br />
Though NB and FB treat the Filipiniana section differently, at least in both cases, Filipino graphic novels are given shelf-space. The way they view graphic novels in general is vastly different, however and, in the end, I'd rather be on the shelf than in a pile on a table. Of course, the ideal would be a totally independent shelf-space in the Graphic Novel section in FB and another one in the Filpiniana section of NB but I may be shooting for the moon on that point.<br />
<br />
So, because I'd rather be on a shelf, I am for the status quo.<br />
<br />
However, the graphic novel fans will never meander into the Filipiniana Section on their own - they must be guided there. To do so, we need the help of the fans. <br />
<br />
So if you're reading this and you are a fan, please, endorse the Filipino Graphic Novels you enjoy and make sure to give them specific directions on how find it. Tell them to go to Customer Service or say:<br />
<br />
"Trese? It's a great graphic novel! It's available in National Book Store IN THE FILIPINIANA SECTION!"<br />
<br />

Well that was a blast.<br />
<br />
I started the day relatively slow. I was placed in a line up with the rest of the Visprint heavy-weights. To my right was Budjette Tan and Kajo Baldisimo, creators of <i>Trese</i>, and to my left was Mannix Abrerra, creator of <i>Kiko Machine</i>. Soon after, Carlo Vergar, creator of <i>Zsa Zsa Zsaturnahhh</i>, occupied the seat right next to me.<br />
<br />
Needless to say, my poor little comic book was struggling to find air time in the steady stream of fans heading towards these giants of Philippine comic books.<br />
<br />
I busted out my sales call: FILIPINO HEROES LEAGUE - WORLD-CLASS STORY TELLING AT THIRD-WORLD PRICES. I got strange looks so I stopped promptly.<br />
<br />
In the end though, a lot of their fans picked up the book and bought and others actually sought me out!<br />
<br />
A big thanks to everyone who picked up a copy! In a weeks time, it will be available in National Bookstore, I heard. I'll confirm.<br />
<br />
For those who are abroad, I'm still trying to figure out a way I can deliver through an online store or something.<br />
<br />
Again, thanks to those who bought! You made my day.<br />
<br />
PS. EXTRA SPECIAL THANKS GOES TO BUDJETTE, WELLA, CARVER, MANNIX AND KAJO FOR GUIDING ME THROUGH MY FIRST BOOK LAUNCH. Oh an extra-extra special thanks to Nida for giving me the opportunity.pfabhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12619599853946692661noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4049806224674867276.post-26604572100815733962011-04-16T09:07:00.000+08:002011-04-16T09:07:05.537+08:00D-DAY!

</div>As I was surfing through the web about everything Alan Moore I ran into a blog that said something like, "A blood-stained smiley-face is a recurring image throughout <i>The Watchmen</i>."<br />
<div><br />
</div><div>However, it gave no explanation as to what the image is supposed to mean.</div><div><br />
</div><div>So I asked myself, "What the heck DOES it mean?"</div><div><br />
</div><div>And this is what I've got:</div><div><br />
</div><div>The smiley-face is the Comedian's badge and "comedian" is just another word for "comic." The words that Dan Dreiberg says at the end of chapter 1, "The Comedian is dead," could easily be read as, "The comic is dead."</div><div><br />
</div><div>On the surface, <i>The Watchmen</i> takes a serious look on what super heroes would actually do to society and what kinds of people would actually put on these costumes. However, upon closer examination, it would seem that Alan Moore is asking everyone to take the comic as a serious genre and that we must put to rest the notion that comics is a silly medium to put smiles on children's faces.</div>pfabhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12619599853946692661noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4049806224674867276.post-40585094827029220492011-03-15T16:01:00.000+08:002011-03-15T16:01:10.740+08:00AND HERE IT IS!It's hard to believe that I'm just 1 month away from launching.<br />
