\nNORDEAST COMICS SUMMIT<\/b>
\nSummary: Act I: Zander Cannon introduces himself and sets the tone for the discussion. Act II: Zander dives into his talk, deftly describing how he structures a three act story, emphasizing how to weave in characters, theme, and flow. Act III: In a final heroic push, Zander answers questions and wraps up this month’s Summit. As always, we videotaped the Summit, and those videos will be posted online eventually.<\/p>\n
Next month (August 4) the Nordeast Comics Summit is pleased to welcome Rob Stenzinger to the stage for a talk that’s tentatively titled, “Using your comics characters as a basis for a videogame.” We’ll have more detailed info on nordeastcomics.com<\/a> later in the month. Rob tells me there’re a lot of different directions his talk can take, so come with questions! And on September 1 Danno Klonowski will take the stage. Details on that are forthcoming as well!<\/p>\n If there’s a topic you’d like to see or even lead yourself, contact me at nordeastcomics [at] gmail.com.

\nWe have some sad news to report. Two of our favorite local cartoonists — Lars Martinson and Red Tenderson* — are leaving our fair state to pursue greener pastures. A few of us had a going away BBQ for Lars last weekend, and for Red Tenderson we decided to devote this month’s Cartoonist Conspiracy jam to his favorite topic:<\/p>\n![\"Hello,](\"http:\/\/www.bigtimeattic.com\/blog\/uploaded_images\/2011\/conspiracy_mpls_2011_07_cover.jpg\")
