Episode 511 - TENSION
Dec 28, 2020
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!! Blame Mr Banes for this one, he's also the man responsible for the great cover art! Haha, he originally came up with the Quackcast topic: How do you build tension in a scene? There are a lot of ways! We talk about some of them here… Time limits on a scene, impending deadlines, a character dying but they can still be saved, misunderstandings, something the audience knows but the characters don't, decompressed scenes, closeups of faces, weird angles…
Topics and Show Notes
NEXT WEEK'S QUACKCAST: Commentary on the movie Fire and ICE
This week Gunwallace has given us the theme to Molly Lusc. This is an elegant promenading dance number with a stately rhythmic progression.Fine creatures dressed in their very best finery step and twirl on the dance floor in measured movements, admired by a crowd of envious onlookers.

That's funny. I thought the other theme in the "Who's Theme" competition was the one that really clicked with Molly Lusc. This one works too though, especially when I put it in context with the overall universe that the comic Molly Lusc takes place in. In any case, I find it a groovy theme and I give my thanks to our beloved Gunwallace for being a groovy composer as always.
