Director Lenny Abrahamson (FRANK) remains faithful to the novel while bringing Jack, Ma and their
entirely singular
world to heart - pounding and intensely
cinematic life.
As an indie author, you may not feel
entirely comfortable moving from the more cerebral
world of words to the domain of
cinematic stimuli, but the same techniques that work effectively in a book have an equivalent mode of shorthand expression in a video: empathy, surprise, mystery, atmosphere, danger, character, excitement.
Comics may be an
entirely different medium but the projects original inception as a film can be felt throughout the pages as Pablo Peppino brings a strong
cinematic style to the art, framing scenes beatifully to give the reader as much information as possible while building the
world as a real place.
