Impressive! I received @lentcine filming crew at home over the last days and they filmed me while drawing (on paper, but also with digital). They also recorded a long interview. They were very friendly, and that was great because it's totally unusual to draw and do my work with a pro filming crew around me, and my house changed into a film set.
It was a good time! ☺️

[CW: photo with eye-contact]

A photo I took with my smartphone of the crew of LentCiné while they were filming and recording me, this morning. In foreground, my monitor, I'm sketching using Krita, on right monitor, references from Pepper&Carrot characters. In background, the filming crew: a woman with a camera, another woman with a microphone pole and headphone, and two men in background. They smile and do eye contact.

A top-down photo of a watercolor concept-art sheet with my tools around (pencils, brushes, eraser), it features two designs for Pepper costume as "a healer" , a test for a future episode. She has a large dress and a stick, and some folkloric dress. It's one of the artwork where I was totally recorded with the high quality setup and good lighting of LentCiné crew.
(LentCiné filmed me also doing digital drawing, and teaching to a school with my webcam and mic from home.)

ils viennent chez moi dans 2 semaines, content de lire un retour si positif de ta part 😀
@gee 😺 Ha bien! Oui, c'est tout bon.
Mais ça mets quand même la pression en dessinant. Bon courage!
c'est ce que je me disais en voyant cette caméra juste au-dessus de l'écran: ça doit pas être intimidant du tout 🙂 @gee
@RLetot@gee 💡 Pro tip: même si la cadreuse demande si ça va, si c'est pas trop impressionant avec les zoom et tout, il faut pas dire pour dédramatiser: "Rhoo, ça va, c'est un peu comme avoir une grosse webcam qui me tourne autour" ...

Heureusement, elle a de l'humour et on en a bien rigolé.

🤣 Moi et mon tact légendaire...
@gee elle pourra raconter ça à ses petits enfants: « un jour je me suis fait traiter de grosse webcam » 😃
Hey very cool David for your interview 👌 so impressive 😅
How interesting, one can only hope it will be available in more languages.

French is a beautiful sounding language, but sadly outside of my humble abilities.
@frankboon Thanks! Sure, Lentcine will subtitle their documentary in English (and release in Free/Libre license).
Wonderful. I will have to keep an eye for the finished piece then or can I assume that you will give some heads up on this matter, as one of voices of this story?
@frankboon Oh yes, I'll do. I'll keep you informed about the English version, trailer or end movie(s). @lentcine
@frankboon We plan to subtitle the series in English. We hope to have enough money to do so as soon as it is released.
Merci pour ton accueil, ta disponibilité, ta gentillesse, tes partages et ces bons petits plats !
Nous avons passé un excellent moment avec toi, c'était un plaisir !
