That was fascinating! Different media, different tools... the familiar lines of your work. And an Impressive feat! Really fun... Even a slight thrill as you signed Donnelly -- having seen the signature on many of my fave NY cartoons.
Amazing, your left hand being the camera person and your right being the subject, so cool. 🙏 FYI your iPhone may have a “cinematic” option (it’d be to the left of “video” and “photo” at the bottom of your screen when your camera is on), if so you could try that, too, for some possibly additional, beautiful filming qualities.
The cinematic mode has smoother stabilization, and it also simulates the shallow depth of field effect that you get with a high quality lens. When in cinematic mode, in the upper right corner is an “f” button, when you press that a simulated f-stop slider appears above the red record button (and it says “depth”). Low f-stop numbers will simulate a very shallow depth of field (lots of blur) and high numbers will simulate a very wide dof (little to no blur).
This makes me think of the childhood challenge of rubbing your belly and patting your head at the same time, but on a whole different level!
hahahaha! Kinda the same, yes!

I'm hoping hoping hoping to make it on the 21st.
Aw thanks, Dee Dee! Hope to see you for the zoom on the 21st. I need to remind folks....
Which one is Jon?
Sorry Liz. I didn’t pay attention and thought you were Suleika 🤪
As a former tech jounalist who remains obsessed with all things digital, you have to tell me: Which iPhone is giving you such exquisite video?
I just got the Max 14 :)
Also, I find it fascinating how just a few squiggles come together to represent your characters!

I saw that, Philip! You must explain to me how it is different. I tried to see the difference by quickly comparing a few short shots.....

That's wonderful! I need to read more about what I can do with this phone....
Amazing! Thanks for the insight into both new digital developments and artistic creativity at the same time!
You're welcome!
