- Abstract
- This paper examines movement capture in the comic book medium---'graphic storytelling where you could freeze a moment and make an image that sustains', as described by Larry Wachowski, director of The Matrix. Dr Burke's paper will explore comics' place in the lineage of a bullet-time which has become ubiquitous in modern entertainments.
