557 – Rattle And Hmmm

And just like that, the trickster has become the tricked.

By the time this goes live we should be down in San Diego getting ready for Comic-Con International 2026! Small Press table N-07 as Lab Reject Studios (same as the past few years) should any of y'all still need the reminder.

Screen time…

One of the ways I see a movie with several characters broken down is in terms of screen time, i.e. how many minutes each of those characters is “on screen” for an audience. The main protagonist and/or title character would most commonly have the biggest total, but that’s not always true, and such deviations are not always bad, but if your main character turns out to only be onscreen for 15 minutes out of your 150 minute movie, either that’s intentional or something went seriously awry. You can’t really tabulate a comic in terms of screen time. I suppose you could use pages or panels that someone appears in. Or should you use dialogue balloon count? Both? Should you even bother doing so, when there are all other manner of hobbies calling you, not to mention the dishes ain’t gonna wash themselves? But part of me is curious if Suzie would still have the biggest count. I might check that out some time, provided one of y’all doesn’t beat me to it.
