Putting a stock character outside his element.
^^^ OH NOES WHAT A FELONY I DID COMMIT
^^ Given that my memory is most likely worse off than yours, it's more than fine.
^ Now, don't start that again.
Memo to self: For future installments, do not work on a dirty desk, lest you end up with dirty spots as in the comic below.

Did not prepare: Shoemi Tsuboshin
Nidesu look-alike: Mirasu Fugu

So I heard Other M came out recently.
^^ Yes. Let's go with that.
^ Yeah, but I knew about pogs and huge slammers way before then (I even had a pog-making machine) but your slammer was certainly an inspiration.

Thought it was good: Sensa "Nabooru" Katae, Kel Norbison

Werd. Just curious, I couldn't remember if it was you I'd had that conversation with, actually. I think I certainly dented a few tables with that thing.
Don't blame Team Ninja. Blame Sakamoto and NoA.

The 180 degree guideline is a concept in visual arts to create an uninterrupted flow between two perspectives. Imagine the pinpoint of the viewer's perspective, and imagine there's a line going between your two principal characters. Generally speaking, the line is not crossed, because the reversal of the characters can throw off the viewer for a second as they readjust to the new positioning of the characters in the room.
This isn't a rule so much as it is a guideline, and I actually quite like that last frame, so I don't have a problem with your line-crossing. Two of my favorite film directors (Yasujiro Ozu and Mikio Naruse) habitually cross the line between edits.

Right, like an Ozu 180 flip. My professors would still mark me down for something like that, though.CaptHayfever wrote:Crossing the 180 line is only a problem when the view lacks significant visual landmarks to reorient the viewer. In this comic, the stove provides that reorientation, so it works.
And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"
