Money for Comics

Here are links to some funding sources of interest:

The National Cartoonist's Society offers the Jay Kennedy Comics Scholarship for artists pursuing comics in their junior or senior year of college (next year). The deadline is February 6.

For the rest of you, especialy those of you graduating this year, apply apply apply for a Xeric grant. This grant provides funding to self-publish and distribute a comic, and has gotten many great comics artists off the ground running, including Jessica Abel, James Sturm, Scott Mills, Ellen Forney, David Choe, and so many more. There are two deadlines per year, one in March, and one in September.

Go bananas for APE!

Hey guys, it's around that time again. The bay area is having their 14th (technically 8th) comic convention for the alternative/ self-published/ and other presses. So, if you can afford a flight to the Golden Gate Bridge after a night of masquerading in spandex/ capes/ or no-clothes, feel free to attend. Also if you went to Comic-Con in July, you get in for free. Well here is a link if you want more information; possibly to even get a booth in the future.

GO APE SHIT!

P.S. There already is a link provided on the right. Also, please feel free to disregard both puns above.

Paul Pope "Animation"

I had mentioned this during my presentation but, couldn't come up with the goods during. So, below is a link to the downloadable PDF the video is embedded deep within. The PDF for the magazine "MGZN" is fully interactive and rife with hands-on potential. Pretty sweet for a free digi-zine. Enjoy?
