Progress Reports

This is a Current Update/Description on Fantalla FotoNovel and various other ongoing joint projects that Triad is undertaking!

So far , I'm the only photographer, publisher, administrator, choreographer, marketer, investor, producer, etc., in the Fantalla FotoNovel project, and I'll be going with 35mm to economically coincide with somewhat incidental, amateur actors! Digital cameras like the Apple Qtake 150 and even the Dycam4 are in my sights to reduce costs for this application which is now relying on SFW digi-scans.

I plan on introducing the FotoNovel in color on the WWW before doing a B Hard copy. The F/N theme will have to meld with the availability and reliability of suggested models/actors.

Even the Font for the balloons is posing a problem, as far as finding a proper 'leading' for viewing on a monitor as compared to printing on blotchy 'web' news-type-print! Any comix or art that is put on line before printing, as you might have noticed, is difficult to read because of the thin leading used to accommodate 'web' newsprint! If I could scan the F/N pages after H/Copy printing this problem wouldn't exist, but I/WE plan to make a few dollars with WWW and local BBS to cover the H/Copy and distribution overhead!

If this would seem kinda backwards, well it is, compared to the other Zines who have initial investors or who simply don't care about profit! I don't have enough relevant material to upload to this site or to present to possible investors at this point, so it's still an up in the air contingency! If the total project 'heaven forbid' fails, I will still have the 'kinky street photography' approach to fall back on, it's foolproof! This is not an speculation of a potential failure, but merely a good backup to a project that is determined to succeed against all odds. Too many small business' fall in the start-up stage because of the lack of back engineering against even 'acts of god' vulnerabilities!

I'm still ironing-out the production/administration/concept, since the task of finding actors/models for 'free' is quite an endeavor as usual, the theme is a street based photography challenge with Cultism, Sci-Fi, Sex, Violence, Love. These attributes are within the fringe of legistics even within this area's Bible-Belt, starting with statutes like Cohen vs. California, and all the way down the detailed legistic database line .

My legal 'stronghold' in successful adult marketing is that the good will be rewarded/the bad persecuted! The zine will be on the WEB/BBS before any attempts are made to hard copy it, I should VGA/GIF it down to 3-4 megs from the 40meg DTP Hard copy format for 64 pages/400+ images, without loosing any immediately discernible loss of resolution! Still a 3-4meg file does take at least 30 minutes to download, and this is the only flaw in the WWW/BBS concept, being negotiated with various $sites.

Categorized as a 'Sci-Fi-Porn' [film-noire] type, the recruitment and dependency of actors, will flow with the chameleonic morphs from starlette to starlette, while the intergalactic and ultra dimensional concept will blend in an odd way with a lesbianistic base.

The standard blurbs like, 'Fuck you Guys, I'm Going Home to Play with my Luv-Toys' and the ever popular 'OH No, It's too big, it Won't Fit, OoHH oohh Nice' will represent the sexual foundation/portion for the overall theme, along with constant subliminal enuendos, in an 'economical' eerie , multidimensional F/Novel format!

The images for various reasons won't be 'graphically explicit' enough to warrant outright censorship, but the overall concept may, for some, be a debatable issue, subject to controversy at best.

It is unfortunate that any bible-belter from a foreign country could possibly litigate according to his 'state' laws, therefore all legal proceedings are subjected to occur in that particular foreign 'state'! It sux big time, and this statute WILL be deterred by myself and various other artists who have been Vandalized by this cheap BBS trick! Though I almost never loose in court proceedings, I never find it in my heart to counterclaim the daylights out of the other party, but that will change, No More Mister Nice Guy ! In the overall real time picture, nobody really wins, except for the greedy Court Systems!

I'm still looking for an available slender/long straight hair/morbidish , preferably Asian, [appropriate] starlet . Actually, I'm not too picky, almost any weird showoff will probably fit the context-theme of Fantalla !

Certain anti-porn steps are being suggested with TPE, to keep the kid's from entering the site! The last resort if necessary in some areas, a triple data encryption, will foil the Tender from decoding the F/Novel if a fraudulent drivers license is sent to my ruthless High-Res FaxMachine! The F/Novel password will be sold via FVirtual, ISN, etc. for Credit Cards , Online OEB/BBS chequing, the ever convenient 'money-order' and other negotiable accounts!

Upon completion, even movie-rights will be subjected to a 'do-or-die' situation, it would cost millions to reproduce the overall cine-choreography for the F/Novel project, therefore yielding a minimal allowance for outright exclusive-copyright purchases! That and all decisions are of course subject to the Triad/Fantalla Members!
