I'm finally getting my pages done for the Prodigal Son - And the opening shot is the home office...just wondering if there was a way to make a full vertical page more cinematic...
Suggestions?

You guys are making i sound like I have a very large expectation to meet! Yeek!
Been thinking about it. Perhaps....I'll actually chop a portion of the image out...or since I'm Editor, I'll make the opening page a double page spread :)
Murtonen is kind of a genius.
That's a good question. I think that perspective and composition are key to making an image on the page look cinematic, in either a verticle or horizontal page. What makes something cinematic is awareness of the camera angle being used. I think one of the best examples of it consistantly is Bryan Hitch's work (especially since in the Ultimates and afterwards.)
