My inspiration came when I read Megaplex bio card and tech specs. Any more than that would be telling.
As for the camera, I primarily use my iPhone 4's built in device, and I shot this somewhere between midnight and 2, and edited dialogue with photoshop and MSpaint between 2 and 3. Still working on the lighting and the backgrounds; in panel 2 it's especially obvious Megaplex is in front of a screen.
I'm glad you like it. My work schedule means I won't be updating for another week (at least) but this storyline should go a bit smoother than
Vanity of a Name did, now that I've worked out some of the early installment kinks.
Anyway, you have your own comic to update, my friend.
