Découvrez les coulisses de Blake et Mortimer avec le scénariste Yves Sente qui vient de scénariser La Menace Atlante. By Jove ! Faire un podcast Blake et Mortimer ? Impossible de résister ! Fan depuis l'enfance de la saga d'Edgar P. Jacobs, nous avons profité de la présence d'Yves Sente à Paris pour revenir sur les coulisses de création de ce classique du 9eme art.

Nous analysons avec lui sur les coulisses de narration des albums ainsi que la formule magique derrière le succès de cette série à la ligne clair. Yves Sente revient sur La Menace Atlante, le tout dernier album qui vient d'être publié aux éditions Dargaud.

Entre Francis Blake, Philip Mortimer et le colonel Olrik, on en profite aussi pour passer en revue les grands personnages de cette saga. Hébergé par Ausha.

Découvrez la série de space opera Orbital qui fête ses 20 ans aux éditions Dupuis ! Du grand Space Opera Orbital. Ce nom résonne avec respect dans l'esprit des amoureux de BD et des passionnés de science-fiction. En vingt ans, neuf albums et un hors-série, le dessinateur Serge Pellé et le scénariste Sylvain Runberg ont fait grandir leur space opera conçu entre la Suède et l'Indre-et-Loire. Le charme des dessins, l'exigence des histoires, la profondeur des personnages ainsi que la qualité intrinsèque de l'univers font de cette saga interstellaire un incontournable. Invasion extraterrestre, guerre galactique, exploration planétaire… « Orbital fait partie des premiers projets que j'ai écrits en me lançant dans la bande dessinée, confie Sylvain Runberg, auteur désormais très expérimenté. La genèse a débuté suite à ma lecture des trois premiers tomes du Cycle de la Culture de Iain M. Banks. Cette série, qui raconte les agissements dans l'ombre d'un groupe de forces spéciales au service d'une société utopique, traite avec beaucoup d'habileté des questions géopolitiques. Je me revois encore terminer L'Homme des jeux et me dire que j'aimerais inventer des récits avec ce genre d'angle. Au final, la BD n'a rien à voir avec la saga de Banks, mais c'est vraiment cette lecture-là qui m'a donné envie de faire cette bande dessinée. » L'influence de Iain M. Banks reste quand même bien présente. Basés sur la station Orbital et travaillant pour l'Office diplomatique intermondial. Caleb Swany et Mézoké Izzua doivent résoudre les crises et apporter la paix sur des planètes en tout genre. Le lecteur suit ainsi les aventures rythmées de deux super diplomates proches d'un autre couple mythique de la bande dessinée de science-fiction, Valérian et Laureline, dont ils sont les dignes héritiers. Le duo va cependant quitter, au fur et à mesure des albums, les vêtements des héros de Christin et Mézières pour enfiler les costumes de personnages touchés par la tragédie. Leurs blessures et leurs émotions sont révélées dans des récits toujours plus ambitieux riches en complots, décès et trahisons. La série est loin d'être un long fleuve tranquille. « Quand on évoque la diplomatie et la géopolitique, il est rare de voir un happy end, précise Sylvain Runberg. Je suis assez attaché à ce que mes albums possèdent une certaine dose de réalisme. » On a tendance à l'oublier mais Mézoké, de la race Sandjarr, est aussi un des premiers personnages non genré de l'histoire de la bande dessinée. Orbital (nom directement inspiré d'un duo britannique faisant de la musique électronique qu'affectionne particulièrement Sylvain) ne serait rien sans le talent graphique de Serge Pellé. Dans sa façon d'imaginer ses aliens, ses planètes et surtout ses scènes d'action, le dessinateur a magnifié la série. « J'ai gardé ce que j'avais appris dans le dessin animé, notamment les poses des personnages. Le début et la fin du geste occupent deux cases. Ce procédé dynamique amorce surtout quelque chose dans la tête du lecteur, qui imagine lui-même les mouvements que tu ne montres pas. Cette technique d'animation est très efficace et j'essaye de séquencer toutes mes scènes d'action de la sorte. Il ne faut pas oublier que l'on a peu de place dans un album. On doit arriver à donner un mouvement. Transcender la séquence reste mon objectif principal. » Celui qui réalise de multiples croquis pour préparer chaque aventure a réussi à faire évoluer graphiquement Orbital, repoussant ses limites. « On ressent des variations de couleurs beaucoup plus grandes si l'on regarde les premiers albums car j'ai remplacé les feutres par l'encre directement. »Hébergé par Ausha.

Zu viel Glück, um schön zu sein. Wir reden heute über Vince Gilligans PLURIBUS. Also genauer gesagt über die ersten beiden Folgen der neuen Serie des BREAKING BAD- und BETTER CALL SAUL-Schöpfers, die noch nicht ganz klar machen, ob das jetzt hier Science Fiction, Mystery oder krasse Gesellschaftssatire ist. Nur eins steht fest: sie bringt Alwin, Matthias und Schröck ordentlich zum Diskutieren. Aber wie gesagt: wir sprechen nur über die ersten beiden Folgen, da wir diese Ausgabe noch vor Ausstrahlung der 3. Folge aufgezeichnet haben, die nun auch schon seit letztem Freitag bei AppleTV+ erhältlich ist. Als Ausgleich oder kleine Entschädigung dafür gehen wir aber auch noch mal auf die 3. Staffel von STAR WARS: VISIONEN ein, um ein bisschen die jeweiligen Favoriten wie auch die Stärken und Schwächen der neuesten 9 Kurzfilme aus einer weit, weit entfernten Galaxis zu klären. Denn gerade die Tatsache, dass drei Folgen direkte Fortsetzungen von Episoden aus der ersten Staffel sind, sorgt bei Alwin und Daniel schon für Gegensätze. Daneben gibt es aber auch einiges an Begeisterung, wenn es zum Beispiel um Folgen wie die inzwischen im Netz schon heiß diskutierte Episode BLACK geht. Demzufolge wünschen wir Euch nun viel Spaß bei einer neuen Runde BADABINGE und mögen sowohl die Macht, als auch das Glück mit Euch sein. Au revoir. Oder auch: à bientôt. 00:00:00 Begrüßung 00:01:47 Star Wars Visions Staffel 3 Fazit 00:26:55 Ereindruck zu Pluribus 00:31:03 Pluribus Handlung mit Mini-Spoilern 00:41:50 Pluribus Spoilertalk 01:40:48 Kurze Empfehlung: Tatsuki Fujimoto 17-26 01:41:39 Verabschiedung

“Written from the point of view of one character and then another scene from the another character. Now, we would never shift point of view within a scene, but each scene, each segment of the book is from a different point of view.” - Lawrence ConnollyIn this How To Write the Future episode, “Building Character-Driven Action Adventure Stories with Lawrence Connolly,” podcast host Beth Barany interviews author Lawrence Connolly, where they explore his upcoming exciting projects, including a feature film with his brother and his new novel. They also dive into using deep POV to create characters that are emotionally compelling to draw a reader into the author's world and share advice for writers working on film adaptations.ABOUT LAWRENCE C. CONNOLLYLawrence C. Connolly's books include the collections This Way to Egress, whose titular tale of psychological horror was adapted for the Mick Garris film Nightmare Cinema; and the Bram-Stoker-nominated Voices, which features Connolly's best stories from The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction, Twilight Zone, Year's Best Horror, and other top magazines and anthologies of science fiction, fantasy, and horror. A third collection, Visions, was praised by Publishers Weekly for featuring an eclectic mix of “entertaining and satisfying” SF. His novels include the eco-thrillers Veins, Vipers, and Vortex. World Fantasy Award winner T. E. D. Klein called Veins “a crime thriller as intense and fast-moving as a Tarantino movie.” This fall, Caezik Science Fiction will release his new novel Minute-Men: Execute & Run, a globetrotting adventure that combines elements of military science fiction, gaming, and medical suspense in a thrilling reinvention of the superhero genre. He is collaborating with brother Christopher Connolly and Academy Award-winning producer Jonathan Sanger to develop a feature film based on Execute & Run. He is also the writer of Mystery Theatre, a podcast produced by Prime Stage Theatre, who premiered his adaptation of Frankenstein in 2022. His newset commission, a play based on the life and works of Edgar Allan Poe, opens in November 2025 at Pittsburgh's New Hazelett Theatre.More at MinuteMenNovel.com.

L'auteur de Shangri-La et de Carbone et Silicium vient présenter Silent Jenny son dernier album de SF aux éditions Label 619 / Rue de Sèvres. La meilleure BD SF de 2026 Entrer dans Silent Jenny, c'est plonger dans un monde postapocalyptique de 300 pages où les abeilles ont disparu. La terre est un enfer pollué et les humains vivent dans de petites communautés autonomes qui ont pris forme dans des monades roulantes. Jenny se miniaturise et tente de retrouver les abeilles qui pourraient être le seul espoir de l'humanité pour polliniser à nouveau la planète et changer son climat. Cette quête entraine Jenny à réfléchir sur la mort et à se rapprocher des autres. Après Shangri-La et Carbone et Silicium, Mathieu Bablet confirme qu'il est bien le maître de la science-fiction française en bande dessinée. Cet album, pas si grand public que ça, est une première prise de risques dans la carrière de l'auteur. Silent Jenny ne donne pas forcément ce qu'attends le lecteur, mais propose un véritable voyage science-fictif. On ne peut que vous recommander ce titre pour les fêtes !Hébergé par Ausha.

Will Bridges https://www.imdb.com/name/nm2782297/ shares his method for making every meeting an opportunity. And he explains what he did that let him come from 10 years of working random jobs and trying to make shorts here and there, to becoming the newly discovered talent, suddenly writing for hit series like “Black Mirror” and “Stranger Things” as well as being a co-creator with Charlie Brooker.Matt and Oren get Will to open up about what he learned from "Shaun of the Dead" and how those filmmakers pitched. And they break down the process of showing decision-makers a concept and the steps needed to get them to truly understand what it will look like, feel like, and clearly see the audiences it will resonate with.If you're looking for ideas to improve how you direct actors, you too will get a lot from this episode. And Will goes into the secret of freeing up established actors to do their best work.

We discuss director jail, an updated rundown of Lanthimos' filmography, and a review of the film.

In our latest Conversation, Frank has something special for us!Following attempts at bringing together all their academic work, Frank goes into Star Trek proper for the first time in the podcast, surprisingly. In an attempt to articulate how the original 1966-1969 run articulated a certain version of the future that, while utopian, was still entrenched in Liberalism and certain elements of Empire from which it could not imagine a different outcome.So follow along as we dive into proto-Q, liberal visions of race, a mining colony, and the Cold War all over again!

Science Fiction from Old Radio X Minus One "The Hostess" December 12, 1956 NBC by Isaac Asimov X Minus One "Lifeboat Mutiny" September 11, 1956 NBC
Director Dan Trachtenberg (10 Cloverfield Lane, Prey) returns to the Universe of the the Predator with an interesting new take.....what if we embarked on a hunting adventure with the Predator itself as the main protagonist? Actually the Predators are officially know as "Yautja" species and this particular Yautja is the runt of his clan named Dek played by Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatan. After some unexpected family turmoil on his home planet, he is inadvertently whisked away to a very dangerous planet named Genna where he has decided to embark on his first hunt for a very rare creature. Along the way, he aligns with a synthetic human named Thia (Elle Fanning) whom is more of an expert on this paritcular creature. And much creature-on-creature violence ensues....though rated PG-13?Host: Geoff GershonEdited By Ella GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon Send us a textSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/
