CC #001 World-building Styles
Channel: Culture Coacher with Frudence
Date: 2013-06-16

A degree-wielding Anthropologist and 15-year veteran geek analyzes the world-building process for creators of fiction. This introduction covers three approaches that creators can take to inserting the plausible impossible into their stories.

This introduction is incredibly rough, since most of it was done via my computer's webcam and with iMovie. iMovie caused all those audio blips I hate so much. Future episodes are thankfully being developed with an HD quality camera and Final Cut.

As shown in the episode, my current queue of webcomics to be reviewed is:
- UNSOUNDED by Ashley Cope http://www.casualvillain.com/Unsounded/
- SNOW BY NIGHT by Mythmakers LLC http://snowbynight.com/
- IANUA by Lesser Key Studios http://ianua.smackjeeves.com/
- HOLYSTONE by Casey Columbus http://holystone-comic.com/
- GUNNERKRIGG COURT by Tom Siddell http://gunnerkrigg.com/

My Wishlist - these are the comics I want to analyze in a review, but have not reached out to their creators for permission yet. Yeah, I can legally do it without their permission, but I would *prefer* to have their support.
