MOTIONARY MEDIA

The nefarious Dr. Lupus, rumored to be attending the event.

I think the organizers of Motionary Comics (see previous entry), myself included, were worried that the local media wasn't picking up the story of our interesting and unique event.

"Where's the beef?" I said, using an 80's catch phrase. Well, we ended up doing pretty well. The first entry was a small blurb with a picture in the calendar section of the Riverwest Currents. The weekly Shepherd Express listed us in their two page "pick of the week" spread yesterday. Media sponsors Yelp.com included us as their featured event this week (HERE), and the heroine known as Yelp Girl will be attending the event.

Today we had a triple whammy:

Myself and Moct art director Chad Edwards appeared on WUWM's program "Lake Effect," interviewed by host Bonnie North: HERE

RLSH critics, but also stand up guys, the Milwaukee AV Club gave the event a boost in a write up by Matt Wild: HERE

And also a write up by our friends at Third Coast Digest, penned by DJ Hostettler: HERE

Tomorrow is the big day!

THIRD COAST DIGEST INTERVIEW

L-R: The Watchman, Mark Metcalf, Tea Krulos in the WMSE studios

The fine folks at Third Coast Digest featured a podcast interview with me today. Under the direction of managing editor Erin Petersen I was interviewed in the WMSE (91.7FM) studios by Mark Metcalf.

Mark is an actor who portrayed memorable and prickly characters that waged losing battles against the toga party loving members of Delta House, Twisted Sister, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer,among others. Although these characters are sinister and plotting, I found him to be a really nice guy. He moved to Wisconsin in 2000 and now works at First Stage Children's Theater and is an advocate for the local arts.

There is a short write up by Mark, some great photos by Brian Jacobson, and the interview itself here:www.thirdcoastdigest.com/2010/10/podcast-mad-as-hell

This will be followed up next week Thursday with a podcast interview between Mark and The Watchman.

Third Coast Digest pictures

Third Coast Digest photographer (and all around cool dude) Brian Jacobson stopped by our Riverwest 24 bonus checkpoint (which I blogged about with a photo essay yesterday) and snapped a few shots that made it into a photo gallery on their website HERE along with other pictures from the rest of the event. Fun times!
