I wasn’t planning to talk about the minutia of the “production” process for this particular comic. I’m only comfortable bringing it up because of how much it didn’t pan out. I was really excited about the idea of getting an “in camera” reflection of the teller in the fourth panel. I set up this whole rig you see here. It almost worked exactly as intended, but I foolishly thought the camera on my iPhone would be high enough quality to capture not only the reflection, but everything behind it in high enough resolution for my liking. I did use a real reflection on the glass, but I just had to overlay that onto everything else. Remember kids, sometimes you can plan everything and work really hard and it just won’t quite work out anyway.

I call this photo “A Portrait in Hubris”.
You can also see a little of the jail cell set from the bonus panel behind there.
