I agree with Old,this is the nuts and bolts of story telling,it's not just pretty pictures,its all about the story,great vid,hats off to mr. Jimenez for being such a fantastic artist and teacher.
I noticed a lot of his layout pages have many panels. DC stories tend to get that way so you have Phil here brainstorming doing extremely technical layouts and sometimes more than one through his process. Seems he's extremely good at modifying stuff on the fly too but he obviously knows what he's doing. Its hard work, thats why they have editors and it helps to have a great art team. NIce vid!
Hey everyone. Thanks for checking out the channel and hope you all enjoy what you find. As I have been interviewing creators there have been a number of them who are homosexual. As far as I am concerned their work speaks for itself. As with all the creators I've interviewed they have all been people whom I look up to and whose work has inspired me. Phil is a great artist and teacher and I'm happy to call him a friend.
there is one step between script and layouts,and that would be gathering of reference images.which of course is dictated by the plot itself. and the you move on to the stage that mr jimenez is demonstrating so masterfully. bravo,mr jimenez,bravo.
A great look into the thought process and actual working method of a talented comic book artist. Personally, I don't understand why anybody's sexual orientation would affect your appreciation of their work. I would love to have sat at a piano next to Freddie Mercury or Elton John as they describe how they go about writing a song. The same is true of any artist whose work I admire - gay or otherwise.
I've been searching mad on youtube for a couple years now anything and everything sequential art. I have a couple doc's on Todd McFarlane and Jack Kirby saved to my fav list. Point being I think anyone who digs deep enough to this lvl of youtube is a little more serious and won't take something like a creators sexuality into consideration...but once again I scroll to the comments below before clicking post and the users prove me wrong, for shame dudes.
lvis11tj7 Phil isn't associated with this youtube channel unfortunately. I think he's pretty active on twitter, that might be a better place to catch him. @Philjimeneznyc
@hajar9911 I don't think being racist or sexist has anything to do with it :D Homophobic maybe. But hey, it's an observation. I paid attention to his voice too when I watched these videos but it doesn't mean you're a jerk or prejudiced or something.
wow, not that it matters, but i didn't even know that phil was gay. I'm glad to see that even professionals have "messy" layouts. I'm the only person who can probably understand my layouts.
@lassolegenda i don't wanna be racist or sexist or what ever but i really wasn't able to continue watching the video because of his voice i really couldn't stand it
