INTERVIEW - David C. Simon

DAVID C. SIMON INTERVIEW – 2009
Author and Illustrator behind Crimson Dark

Amid a thousand and one webcomics set in a fantasy realm or dealing with the antics of gamers, few seem to tackle the space battles and distant trappings of science fiction, and fewer still do it without a comedy angle. David C. Simon plans to change all of that however with his webcomic Crimson Dark. We get a few moments of his time and have him sit down on the couch with Enker to answer a few questions exclusively for Coloring Dragons.

RICHARD MATHIS INTERVIEW 2009

Want to know what to read on the web? This is the man to tell you!

For those of us stuck at work, chained in front of a computer over a lunch hour, it’s a life saver to be able to read a few pages of a webcomic online and break the monotony. But which ones should we be reading? The webcomics scene has literally exploded these past few years from its relatively humble origins. Now every Tom, Dick and Harry has set themselves up a page and labeled themselves an artist, but how do you screen the works of genius from the crap? Luckily for us, Richard Mathis of ‘topwebcomics.com’ is here to talk to Enker on the CD couch and guide us into his world.

INTERVIEW: Chris R. Notarile

CHRIS R. NOTARILE INTERVIEW 2009
The creative force behind a whole stack of high quality fan films.

When people use the term ‘fan film’ or ‘fan project’ what normally springs to mind is wonky camera work, bad acting and a non-existent budget that’s been wasted on over the top effects. However there’s one production company intent on showing the internet how wrong that perception can be. Blinky Productions is responsible for some fantastic works, including fan films such as ‘Call me Mr J.’, ‘I’m Powergirl Dammit’, and original pieces such as ‘The Protector. We managed to grab Chris .R. Notarile, the driving force behind Blinky Productions to sit down for an interview with Enker on the Coloring Dragons couch to discuss this work.

INTERVIEW - Richard Morris

RICHARD MORRIS INTERVIEW – 2009
Author and Illustrator behind Yet Another Fantasy Gamer Comic and The 10 Doctors

What if I told you that you were going to run a daily webcomic, that it would be funny, witty and well drawn, AND that at the same time you’d also be running a second comic that has all of the above? Scared yet? Well Richard Morris doesn’t seem to be. His comics, ‘Yet Another Fantasy Gamer Comic’ and ‘The 10 Doctors’ are just two of his current online works. Agreeing to sit down for an interview with Coloring Dragons, Enker asks the man behind the scenes the questions you want to hear answered.

INTERVIEW - Andy Odendhal

ANDY ODENDHAL INTERVIEW – 2009
Mind behind the ‘Too Much Information’ webcomic

Sex, Ghosts, Dark Humour and CGI pages. It could really only be the off-beat webcomic Too Much Information. Over the course of its run it’s dealt with all kinds of topics, both comical and serious in their nature, but at heart it remains damn good entertainment for everyone. Enker spends some time questioning Andy Odendhal on the Coloring Dragons couch.

INTERVIEW - Eddie Lebron

EDDIE LEBRON INTERVIEW 2009

The mind behind the unofficial Mega Man movie.

Capcom’s ‘Mega Man’ franchise has seen all manner of different media over the last few years, in particular we have seen animated movies and television shows join the wide range of games and faces that the character has enjoyed. However for many the original ‘classic’ series retains a certain charm that has produced a powerful fanbase, some of whom have taken it into their own hands to produce a fully fledged live-action movie based on the character. Enker sits down on the Coloring Dragons couch and asks the creative mind behind this film a few questions.

INTERVIEW - J.E. Simon

J.E. SIMON INTERVIEW – 2009
Mind behind the ‘Final Fantasy VI’ webcomic

It’s expected that popular computer games get their characters played with for any number of re-imaginings, lazy sequels and what-if scenarios online today. However for a webcomic to faithfully start to re-tell the complete 40-hour epic that is a Final Fantasy game is something few artists are willing to tackle. Enker spends some time questioning J.E. Simon (Orinocou) over her decision to do just that with Final Fantasy VI, all for Coloring Dragons.

INTERVIEW � James Eatock

JAMES EATOCK INTERVIEW – 2009
Producer of the magazine Cereal: Geek

Whilst many people are content just to upload to the internet, some go that extra mile. Cereal: Geek is a magazine unlike anything currently on the market today, with a broad understanding of popular culture for the 80s. Enker sits down with the magazines creator and producer James Eatock and asks some questions for Coloring Dragons.

INTERVIEW - Caves of Narshe

CAVES OF NARSHE INTERVIEW – 2009
Host of some of the best Final Fantasy Walkthroughs on the net

Walkthroughs are a funny thing, some games today seem to be designed expecting the gamer to buy one in order to find a series of ever-more obscure secrets. Classic games however have always managed to secure a place in our hearts, and there are those who complete them and write guides to help strengthen the enjoyment for free online. Enker sits down on the couch with the people behind Caves of Narshe, and asks them some questions on the behalf of Coloring Dragons.

ENKER�S MUSINGS � Life in Design

By Ben Warren

Those who know me will be able to tell you what I do, not because I have gone out of my way to tell them, but because a person’s profession affects every little moment of their life. For a Teacher everything is potentially a lesson to be taught to their charges, with resources and lesson plans all around them. For a Firefighter everything is either safe or unsafe when it comes to being a fire hazard, and you can physically see them looking around a venue when they enter for the first time to check and see if the emergency exits are clearly marked and unblocked. Myself, as a Graphic Designer and Illustrator, I see the world with a little more flare for inventiveness.
