For sure this means I'm not doing 40 panels. Dunno how many, just yet, but it's not like I'm making a movie; I'm just adding visuals to a person telling a story, and I've already decided the next frame I was going to do was unnecessary. I had 8 frames plotted out for two paragraphs...and that's absurd. All I need for this are pinpoint moments to back up the audio and focus on the character...and to have each of them reach the same level of detail as this one means a week on each. I ain't gonna rush it.
I do feel good about this panel, I have to admit. It gives Adam a nice feel...nice look. I'm going to keep the focus on him, throughout. No cutting back and forth, like I was storyboarding a film. No supercilious angles. Just Adam going through his morning, unaware his world is about to be turned on its head.
I get too carried away with complexity, sometimes...almost to the point where it's its own reason to create, and that's just silly.
