I’m not doing my weekly stream anymore.
I was trying to do two incompatible things at once. I was riding the fence between recording videos and guiding real-time activities. And riding the fence hurts!
Streaming is best when the audience is engaged and is using the text chat. But in my experimenting, I realized that drawing and using the text chat can’t happen at the same time. I was finding it too difficult to transform my activities into ones that promoted chat box use.
That’s not to say that making those activities isn’t possible!
If you want to try running your own Late Night Comix Show, you have my blessing and my support! You don’t have to call yours that. I would like to see streams and videos around alternative comics making.
My original blog post about the show is here. My videos are here. If you want any advice, direct message my Instagram here.
Otherwise, I recommend Sequential Artists Workshop’s Friday Night Workshops. It’s free on Zoom, and the recordings are on YouTube.
And if you live in Northeast Ohio, I of course recommend Comics in the Circle.
