the very inciting element arrived when i was working in london in the BBC's studios
storyboarding on a quiet uninterresting show. i was in a room were i was waiting whenever
i was workin an hour or ten.so i started to doodle for myself and i got this idea of title, and those girls in bikini.
so i scripwritte a story and six months later i started a few pages
but there wasn't any publisher interrested or what so ever,i told myself go for it.
Nevermind, it ll be a comics, i won't have hudge actress or music....
That's why on some pages you can find some graffitis look alike fonts with written lyrics of specific song
because i've imagined them on the scene i read marvels when i was a child
franquin comics, gaston, spirou and fantasio the smurfs and stuff like that
akira was a big turn too some italian comics book very cheesy as diabolik
so it's the contraction of a lot of influence anyway it's obvious that most of the people
workin in the movie making industry or in comics book are influenced by comics, movies,
books, music, or life events... what feed us in fact
i studied animation and today the 22 years old that are in gobelins school of image have
such a great skills in every field... technicaly they're so strong
nowadays, on any forum you can learn "how to draw like" with tutorials.
We all need to copy a lot when we learn.
in bikini wars some scenes didn't came along by chances.
Clearly, it s by watching a movie that i told myself "it could be something like that"
it s very tricky to say when are we copying, tributing, or creating specificly.
so many people have really great skills but what they talk about, isn't very unique
and i think if you want to tell something very unique
it s a very complicated alchimy
you need to have experienced things you need to be cultivated
what's strange is now i know my characters so i know they deserve more than just what i shown from them
i want them to live more adventures
i know about their failures
there is a lot of me
a lot from the people i love and that i know well and that i discuss with
they have something true
so except some older scripts i wrote It's the first project
i decided to lead with more serious theme
the spleen and ill being the lack of values
i mean we re living in a crazy time, in a crazy world
i wanted some humor wich is something important. i would like people to see there s some truth in it.
it speaks about woman also
cause i think man and woman relationships are not easy
if the characters have this life in this comics, it s also because they have some emotional reason
to have this hedonist and complicated lifestyle, going through harsh love story
i've been told about this website lulu.com
that allow the printing on demand so it s a bit expensive to produce
i made the lowest possible price
today i m proud to have brought the project to an end and to have overcome every step of the production
especially to have done it against all odds, i did my job.
i d like to make it bigger. cause it s supposed to be a trilogy.
Looking back, i realise i basically wanted to make movies
but afterward it wasn't what i really wanted to do
What i wanted was to live like in a movie there's a big difference
