<span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">This year I decided to take part in the 24h Comic held at the French Comic Book Festival of Angoulême.<br />The challenge is to create a 24-page comic using three constraints being unveiled during the event: the first one on Tuesday 26 at 3pm, the second one at 11pm, and the last one on Wednesday at 7am. I had to imagine a story in which: <b>Character A is telling a story to some other characters</b>, then <b>Character B contradicts Character A’s story</b> and at last <b>Character C brings the story to a conclusion</b>.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I had a story in mind and I asked people on Facebook to share their funniest / quirkiest / saddest love story with me so I could incorporate it in mine. I focused a lot on building the story rather than rushing to finish it, so I only managed to make 9 pages! Hopefully you'll enjoy reading it, and let me know what you think :)</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">So as some of you might already know, back <span style="background-color: white; line-height: 17px;"><span style="color: #333333;">in April I won the Grand Prize for in the The Strand bookstore Tote bag contest. My illustration is now printed on a bag and sold in their New York bookstore and online </span><a href="http://www.strandbooks.com/tote-bags-pouches/tote-bag-rush-hour-reader" target="_blank"><span style="color: orange;">here</span></a><span style="color: #333333;"> - yeehaa!</span></span></span><br />
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 21.46666717529297px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I cannot put in words how honoured, grateful and excited I am about this. I consider it a small present, from me to wonderful New York City, to express my gratitude to all the great people I met during the few months I spent there in 2010.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #141823; line-height: 21.46666717529297px; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I put a lot of things that make me happy in this illustration: books, people, different cultures living together, a few of my friends, a dog, and the subway of course. I hope it will make people feel happy as me and that next time I come to visit, I'll see lots of New Yorkers riding the subway with it!</span></div>

Wow! I did not imagine the Magic Depictor to be such a success! I stopped counted but I think I drew over 50 people in about 2 hours - manic but amazing!<br />Thanks so much to everyone who came down to Hackney Downs Studios, for the Open Studios evening, you guys were amazing :)<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Hello! I am running a project for the Hackney Downs </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Open Studios </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">on Thursday 3rd July in London <br />and I am looking for illustrators to participate</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">. </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Here's the idea:</span></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The name is <span style="color: #cc0000;"><b>"Lyly's Magic Depictor"</b></span>. It is inspired by the <a href="http://www.cornerhouse.org/art/art-events/sketch-o-matic" target="_blank"><span style="color: #cc0000;">Sketch-O-Matic</span></a> <br />I participated to in 2012, created by Bren O'Collaghan for Cornerhouse in Manchester. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">It is presented </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">as a photobooth, </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">but instead of having your photograph </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">taken, <br />you get a handdrawn portrait.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">
</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">How it works is there is an illustrator hidden in one of </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">the booth, </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">and s/he </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">can see the sitter <br />through a one way </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">mirror (plexiglas with reflective film on it). </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The sitter can </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">see the other side of the mirror but will only see his own </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">reflection. </span></div>
</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The illustrator draws the portrait on a sheet </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">of A6 paper in 2 minutes, then slides it</span></div>
</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">through a little </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">hole in the receptacle outside of the booth (in grey in the </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">mock-up). </span></div>
</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><div style="text-align: center;">
Magic! You get an instant portrait :)</div>
