It's not quite as time-consuming as it used to be thanks to smart phones and WiFi.It's not like the old days when I would use film cameras, take photos, develop the film, scan the photos, then add captions/effects. Yeah. Or even after digital cameras came along, I'd still have to attach the camera to a computer, download the photos, and then add captions/effects. Now I can just point and click with my phone, upload wirelessly, then add captions/effects. One thing that's never changed is that I still use MS Paint for effects/captions, which is a pretty simple program.
The most time-consuming thing so far was placing Jetfire in front of that Megatron poster. Because obviously there was nothing behind those toys when I photographed them, and the idea was to simply copy and paste that image behind them. But stupid me wasn't mindful enough to keep tall Jetfire clear of the space that I wanted to paste the image onto, so I ended up having to manually crop Jetfire's interfering wing/shoulder back into the shot. Guh. But except for stuff like that, these photocomics are fairly straight forward shoot, add text and load.
Most of these are also taken at night; usually after the rest of my family has gone to bed.
