The vignettes serve to better express the scene and the action unfolds.
Depending on the case, the comics may or may not be personal. I mean, there are comics that the authors personally, but others are simply made by producers and distributors. An example of this style is that of the Marvel comics, where the authors change over time and change one character in comic comic, produced by the "personal touch" that each author reflects on the job.

Movies
films are radically different from the two previous formats. Typically, they are governed more by the tastes of the audience. What makes it more commercial. Tend to be less personal, although they have a director who is who else decides. Films areeconomic stakes. A writer writes a book, and tries to get a distributor to publish it. However, in the cinema a director proposed a project in some cases, and conducts other projects outside, so stop being so personal.
The moviegoer's attitude is very different to the reader, whether comics or books. The viewer needs to flow, action, great dialogue and can not stand.
can make a movie with dialogue largos and very expressive of thoughts, but first, this makes it more elitist and therefore with fewer benefits. Secondly, a film of many dialogues loss of movement or pattern. This leads to the main shortcoming of the film: its very limited duration. Unless someone wants to make the commitment to make a movie of 4 hours, with very few cases, have a limit of about 2 or 3 hours. A long movie overwhelms the viewer and makes them think more about going to the movies.
divided into parts could be viable, but fails to large contracts to their players, and making a financial investment without knowing if they provide fat profits. Normally no one dares to do that. If you make a single investment FILMula, ie short-term contracts for actors and crew, you may find the problem of not being able to do the next part of any of the major players are recruited for another movie differently.
1.4 - Series
This case is even more particular. Could be classified as "mini movies." Are many and often have lower budgets and lower visual quality than contemporary movies to it.
As great advantage, have its duration, which allows much more to develop the characters and stories that surround them.
The viewer also has a more leisurely to see a number, enabling you to deepen the dialogue and the chains of thoughtaja on film, using the example of Harry Gregson-Williams has performed with great skill the soundtracks of many films as they could be "The Rock" or the Shrek franchise, but I've also made sublime soundtracks of the latest games of Metal Gear Solid saga.
Graphics are fast approaching those of the series or movies, and even include videos and voices of the same.
And the scripts, in many cases exceed those of the films and come to the books.
The depth of the characters is more or less matched that of the comics, it is obvious that also depends on the game in question.
are not subject to term problems, and provide less problems if you want to tell the story in several parts.
2 - Types of series of comics, television and games.
Now let's get to catalog the stories of life. This affects only the comics, television series and video games, since the films are of limited duration.
series change much depending on how the author or authors face the project.
2.1 - Development auatoconclusivas frames.
Some series are born from a simple idea, and chapter to chapter to be developed. A curious case of this kind is the television series "7 Vidas, where the initial idea was to narrate the adventures of a personthat out of the coma and was in a world he never met, but the actor playing this character left the series shortly thereafter. This meant that the writers had to change the approach in full.
2.2 - Series of limited duration
Other distinct series is limited, ie, a story told in a limited number of chapters. An example of such series is the television series "Babylon 5", which was divided into 5 seasons and was not canceled, but that ended in the 5th as it was originally thought.
comes to be the same as a movie, but to have more time to shoot, you can delve deeper into the characters. The issue of contratos resurface here. If you hire people for X episodes, spend more money, and if you do it for less, you can go.
2.3 - Mixed Series
A third type of series that are mixed, combining the above two types. Are series that tell a story, but are subject to "fill chapters" to last longer.
2.4 - Problems
mixed series and frame autoconclusivos have a problem. The producers try to continue if it makes money, but that goes for making scripts and more scripts with the same characters.
This way of addressing the situation has several problems. If you make your character alive"Infinite" adventures and hardships, just being illogical that character resist that. An example of this is Spiderman, which has been selling comics since the 60's and has suffered all sorts of adventures and hardships. With the series goes something like
Another curious problem I see in the series of this type, is when do series on careers. And is about doctors, policemen, firemen, journalists, detectives and several other types. But if you think about it, the professions tend to be routine by nature. A fireman putting out fires, every day in a new building, but neither has so many stories to tell to make a series.
2.4.1 - What the writers give solution?
series of these two types in soap operas. In fact it is something that affects almost all series of these types.
Another option is to read the newspaper. Newspapers are great for getting scripts. The reality often surpasses fiction, and are always interesting things to put in the series. Those things include fashion issues and controversies discussed.
2.5 - why some guys and others.
series of limited duration are subjected to the worst of enemies: the spectators. Spectators usually fond of the characters that star, and we tend to continually demands upon completion. That's a big problem for producers. See a projecto they could bring benefits because it is demand and the author does not follow, so we went to the pressures.
This has come to pass even in books. When Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Sherlock Holmes decided charged, inter alia, that was until the very noses of his own creation, distribution and readership jumped him. The thing gets out to the point that a publisher was planted in front of a check signed the wearer with the amount payable in white. He said "you fill in the amount and the charge in exchange for resuscitation." The "poor" Arthur put a highly exorbitant amount to get rid of him, staying with her eyes wide to see that the editor will accept the amount. CH
problem.something I remember a particular case, related to the work "Michael", known novel by Jules Verne. They told me, although I admit that I have not read the book, the book does not lose sight Miguel being burned by a red-hot sword. According to the explanation of the book, tears pouring cold enough to save the sword But then, as we shot this on film? Here comes
really the problem. A book is more descriptive than a movie can be defined as the scenes from several points of view, adding what each character thinks and acts in themselves.
A moviegoer can not tolerate so much data, so the basic story adapted loses part of his oras work.
Another problem is that the film has moral and ethical barriers. It is not the same to read a violent scene where arms and legs fly, shoot and plants to people visually. The themes that sometimes touch on the books are so contentious as to dare to roll them, and if they do, the censor.
Film is, of all genres, most consumer and commercial. As more money is needed to do something. People do not bring up money without having in hand a "blockbuster."
Obviously, the fear of losing money makes the stories and events are "a little twist" to be more commercial, ie so that more people like them. Another
big problem is the fact that the characters change to be adapted. A book is personal to who writes it, so to be caught by another person, the director or writer, the character sometimes change radically. This explains the fact that Sherlock Holmes does not resemble anything in the books, the pathetic picture of himself that give us Basil Rathbone, Sherlock Holmes which is more a guess than a detective, and good old Watson becomes a funny and silly character. The only person who knows what would each character in each situation is the author.
If you go to the cinema to see an adaptation of a book, take what I expected, and try to see the light of those difficulties that are insurmountable, at least with the concept of cinema todayoriginals. It also relaxes the religious references. Another similar case is Punisher Marvel Comics, whose hero also becomes more modosita in the film.
can also play something the matter of twisting the case to make them more commercial. These days, a clear example is the choice to Hugh Jackman, a young actor, tall and handsome, to Wolverine, a character more, short and not exactly a beauty. This leads to a Wolverine "mono" which has nothing to do with the comics.
3.3 - In video games
Another film similar to the previous case. Although even this genre looks worse treaty. Movies adapted from video games are geared to a publicr our command of the NES is valid, but is it for a movie?
Parker Bennett, Terry Runte and Ed Solomon made a script where a plumber instead of mushrooms, came into the world of the dinosaurs (stage of the game Super Mario World for SNES), Koopa becomes a dictator Denis Hooper become evolved dinosaurs. Princess Peach instead, called Daisy (name of rescuing the princess in Super Mario Land Game Boy) and toad, the small mushrooms that helps the princess becomes a frustrated rocker. Honestly, the film almost nobody liked, but the truth, do not understand how they came to make a movie like game.
A friend of mine and I joked about "Tetris, The Movie." Tetris is a puzzle game with no story, where you just have to put chips to make them disappear.
There are games that are likely to have a good movie adaptation, as the Metal Gear saga and others who can not be adapted.
3.4 - In a series of films based
we must bear in mind that usually does not make "adjustments" but continuations of the series but in movies.
Here a distinction. If the series is the animation, go to the comic, since in many cases be subject to the same problems.
If the movie you make of the animated series animation is also because there will be many problems.
of the film. They often contain scenes that do not appear in the film, because the writer is given all the material there, including the original scripts.
3.6 - From movies to comic
practically applied since the previous section also depends somewhat on the effectiveness of the author. The comics in question are typically designed for children and tend to be less "explicit"
3.7 - From film to video game
This section is very common to find. The resulting games tend to be mediocre and action. There are always exceptions but they are few indeed. Licenses are being made in haste to coincide with the film, period. Extra casesNot Spiderman 2 game for PS2, GC and Xbox, which was a real success for its smooth finish.
3.8 - In the book / comic / video game series
I group the three genera in a section for convenience, since their characteristics are similar.
adaptation is certainly more desirable, to have and the time necessary to deepen and the ability to do it in better condition. The problem is to issue a series does not provide the benefits of making a feature film, so often be less the case.
There are great examples. Where once spoke of a bad adaptation of Sherlock Holmes film, I can speak of a wonderful adaptation by GranadaTV and starring the now sadly late Jeremy Brett, who can boast of being the best Sherlock Holmes has been in history. The series and the comics can afford to have a slower tempo that movies are made compatible with each other and with books, which often have a slower tempo as well.
3.9 - Other
I leave the reader meditate on the rest, thus avoiding this stretch more than it already is.
4 - Conclusion
After this endless text, we can conclude that it is easy to adapt things from one gender to another. Sudan writers usually ink in the case of cinema as cinema, people believe it or not,is more limited if it exists. Personally, I would not bother to split the book into two movies or three if necessary. Or they could make a TV series about the book. But gentlemen, we leave the world of roses in which we live and accept reality. In the film does not do things for them, it is not an art in itself, but made to provide benefits. Make a "Lord of the Rings" is not cheap, and obviously, if we invest a lot, we also want many benefits, that is the definition of "investment."
If the time to see and to criticize a work that blends the reader of this article reflects on this, his opinion is probably the least somewhat more favorable to the cases that have no remedy likeSuper Mario Bros and more ruthless with abuse cases such as the original Doom, House of the Dead (Uwe Boll), Alone in the Dark (Uwe Boll again), Punisher, and many more cases that are sure the reader could add to this list.
