Act-I-Vate Experience!!!!

The ACT-I-VATE Experience, a documentary directed and produced by Seth Kushner and Carlos Molina, (CulturePopProductions.com) gives a behind-the-scenes look at the premiere webcomics collective.

or, you can view THE ACT-I-VATE EXPERIENCE here: http://vimeo.com/8204237

“What began as a promo piece for ACT-I-VATE became an informative film about webcomics, web vs. print, and the future of the industry,” says Seth.

The ACT-I-VATE experience features interviews with and art by such comics luminaries as Dean Haspiel, Nick Bertozzi, Mike Cavallaro, Simon Fraser, Tim Hamilton, Leland Purvis, Molly Crabapple, Kevin Colden, Dan Goldman, Josh Neufeld and many more.

The film has already premiered at the Baltimore Comic-Con, Brooklyn’s King Con, APE in San Francisco, Quimby’s Bookstore in Chicago, and online at Newsarama.com

ACT-I-VATE, the premiere webcomix collective, features original, serialized graphic novels and is updated daily. ACT-I-VATE’s select artists produce their signature work sans editorial oversight and offer their comix for free to an ever-growing audience of loyal readers. In addition to these high-quality comix, ACT-I-VATE is known for having lifted the veil between creation, creator, and reader by providing a forum for spirited dialogue between audience and auteur. The website confirms one of ACT-I-VATE’s core tenets: that the artists and writers of this curated comix community are the optimal providers of intellectual properties and original content. http://www.act-i-vate.com/

Sam&Lilah reviewed at Webcomics Overlook, Yay!

Over at The Webcomic Overlook, El Santo reviews S&L:

“The bright and washed-out colors give the comic light, magical feel where, at any moment, you expect swirls of cherry blossom petals to appear out of thin air…It’s wonderfully innocent … and in this world where the sky is always falling, we need more of that.”

Read the full review here.
