Pseudo-new standalone webcomic story for the holidays: The First Noel.At the end of 2004, director Jack Lucido rang me up about doing something for the Triad Indie Film Network's first annual "Fruitcake Film Festival" out in Greensboro. I wrote two, and Jack directed them: A drama ("Felt Its Worth") in the 3 minute category and a comedy ("The Three Rs") in the 10-second category. The ten-second film still holds up well, I think. "Felt its Worth" however was a series of stills, "La Jete"-style sans the moving shot that might legitimize our piece as actual cinema. While I'm still impressed with what Jack did with my point-and-shoot still camera and informal shot-list, all that was negated by sappy editing and worse music (my fault, both). So two years roll by and I think: let's play to the project's strengths. So light a candle AND curse the darkness with The First Noel.
