Hey guys, Im wondering if anyone has ever attempted in making an accurate Creepshow comic like the one seen in the movie?
Ive been thinking about this as a future project by using screen caps, a little photoshop work to replicate the same book seen in the film.
I currently own the 1980's graphic novel adaptation, but unfortunately it's not accurate to what is seen on the film....Even the cover is different.
By looking at the book in the film, it looks as though the artwork for the prop was taken from screencaps of the movie scenes which were then converted to B&W and then given the comicbook style coloring treatment.
There's also plenty of reference in the film to the corny comic book ad pages which I could easily do in PS.
The only problem i noticed is the sequence of the panels. When each story starts, the movie makes a transition from film to an animated comic book sequence. During these scenes you can see the last few panels of the previous story, and they seem to be out of sequence (Well, not really out of sequence, but they seem to skip across much of the dialog and story.)
Im wondering if I should make the panels coherent to the story, or should I just make it accurate to what is seen on the film (with panel mistakes and all)??
Any advice, ideas?
