I’ve seen the movie and want to talk about it with other h’thonners who’ve seen it. SPOILER WARNING! Don’t even think of clicking on this unless you want to read major plot points immediately given away (in my first comment within). You have been warned.
[Octopunk sez: Jules and I just saw it tonight and I want in on the discussion, so I manipulated time itself to move the post up and jump in to the talks.]

Another spoiler-filled bunch of comments on the new Star Trek movie—this time, focusing exclusively on questions of visual design. Not surprisingly, it turns out that I have a lot to say about the design elements in the new movie. I make no promises about any of this being remotely interesting to anyone, as usual.
The SPOILER WARNING might not be totally necessary, since I don’t really discuss the plot at all, but I’m doing it anyway, because if you haven’t seen the movie you probably don’t want to read lots of descriptions of the “look and feel” of the new Star Trek universe.

Zack On My Back is a children’s rhyme that my friend David composed for his godson Zack a few years ago and asked me to illustrate. (This was way before octopunk and julie had their own Zack.) Now that 7 Souls (my teen supernatural thriller, co-written with my genius friend Barnabas Miller) is complete, I’ve asked our agent to help me find new gigs as an illustrator and given him Zack On My Back to evaluate as a potential portfolio piece. I hadn’t looked at this stuff in a while, but I really want to do more drawing and painting and I thought I’d show this stuff to you guys to get your opinions and/or any recommendations you might have in terms of me finding art gigs. Comments/critiques welcome!
