VERTIGO COMICS QUESTIONNAIRE

Greetings visitors!

I am conducting research for a university assignment, on Vertigo comics. I am examining the companies profile, market place and ethos; aiming to learn more about the statements Vertigo makes as a commercial and artistic entity.

I thank you in advance for participating, please post your answers in the journal comments below.

Some of these questions are quite abstract / tricky - but please try your best!

--

1. WHAT TITLES HAVE YOU READ ON THE VERTIGO IMPRINT?

2. HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE THE VERTIGO EXPERIENCE IN ONE WORD?

3. WHAT DIFFERENTIATES VERTIGO FROM OTHER IMPRINTS?

4. WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE VERTIGO SERIES?

5. IF VERTIGO WERE TO BRANCH INTO ANOTHER PRODUCT FIELD, WHAT SHOULD THEY DO?

6. IN ONE WORD, PLEASE SUMMARISE THE TYPICAL 'VERTIGO' READER.

7. CAN YOU NAME ANY OTHER PUBLISHERS WHO ALSO SPECIALISE IN COMICS FOR MATURE READERS?

8. WHAT GENRE WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE VERTIGO FURTHER EXPLORE? HORROR, SURREAL, SCI FI etc.

9. IF VERTIGO WERE A COLOUR, WHAT WOULD IT BE?

10. WHAT ARE VERTIGO TITLES STRONGEST SELLING POINT, WRITING OR ART?



Thanks again!! :)

THE GRINDSTONE

Back at university now, with lots of intensive learning going on, particularly in markup and CSS.. A couple of interesting assignments to be getting on with, including a pixel-art project - which is waaaay out of my comfort zone, but Im confident I can do something funky with it ;p

Im still partying pretty hard on fridays, and making an effort to get out of the area and check out big events; RAM at Matter was sick!! :D

SPOTIFY

Im totally loving Spotify.. A whole world of music that I missed the first time round is getting some play-time.. Its good for me to have a break from Drum n Bass and Dubstep for a while and check out some other genres. At the moment, my tastes are leaning toward film-score music, synth pop, electro and classical (..yeah I know, what a fucked up selection!)

I honestly believe that this is the future of music distribution, I can see the app reaching every media playback device possible. If your not yet aware of its existence, google it ;)

If anyone here uses Spotify, and you have a playlist you want to share with me, link me up!

I will not be thanking deviants for favs anymore, as its taking me up to 5 hours a week to work through them! I think that time could be used better creating art, so I wont be doing it anymore. I will however still be thanking people for devwatches and responding to feedback on deviations :)

Hope everyone understands the reasoning behind this - as ever I have infinite gratitude for those interested in my work :)

END OF THE HOLIDAY

So.. Summer is over for me, back to work now and shortly back to university! I think this is going to be the most challenging year of my life academically and professionally, but Im pretty hyped for the challenge..

CAREER OPTIONS

After doing a bit of research and reading a pretty informative blog by *bionic7, Im pretty furtive about working in the world of graphic design.. Im not entirely sure I want to be worked like a dog for what I deem a less than satisfactory salary; so it may be the case that I stay in education and work as a lecturer in Digital Imaging or a related field.

..Just depends on how the next two years pans out, who knows what opportunities arise.

CELLULOID LEGEND

I am absolutely rabidly fanatical about cinema. This week I have been re-watching all my favourite Stanley Kubrick films; A Clockwork Orange, 2001 A Space Odyssey and The Shining. I honestly think he is an unparalleled master.

Some of my watchers on here have heard me ranting about the French 'Extreme Wave' flicks, and if you like horror / visceral cinema - every single one of them is a must-view. Heres what you need to see, in order:

Martyrs, Irréversible, À l'intérieur (Inside), Haute Tension, Calvaire, Frontière(s)

HOLIDAY // SUMMER BREAK

The pretty kool thing about working in a secondary school is that I get up to 7 weeks holiday in the summer!! Ive been on some pretty mad adventures, the first of which was 'Lounge on the Farm' music festival, which is near my home town in catnerbury. That was a pretty epic escapade with plenty of shenanigans (I was even on tv, whilst in a severely 'altered' state) :D

The following week after LOTF, Ive been in the cornish town of Newquay, which is the main surfing hotspot of the UK.. Not being a surfer meant I enjoyed the beaches, bodyboarding, pubs, clubs and 6 consecutive days of going to sleep at 6am and binge drinking. Im now in detox mode, drinking water and going to the gym. ;p

With this free time I plan on being very industrious, creating lots of event flyers and art for display here on DA.. Also, the month of September will be my debut solo exhibition (I really mean it this time lol).. Might as well enjoy myself before university starts again ;)

SYNAECIDE SCIENTIFICA

My latest submission (Beauty in the Posthuman) has had an amazing response - it was a great project to be involved in, and Im pleased to report that the guys of IDMF label are very happy with the work. I sincerely urge everyone who reads this to go to their site and download the Synaecide 'Scientifica' album FREE from their label website.

Scientifica is a masterwork of grime-y breaks, mutilated samples, and gorgeous vocals. Working his way through a myriad of styles; Synaecide displays a very unique voice, a host of intricate texture work and breathtaking composition.
