Android sketchability

Can't ignore Android devices spewing out from the sewers these days. I tend to instantly download Sketchbook Pro or use the scribble software to see the screen response to drawing strokes. Have to tip my hat to iPhone here. The screen on Apple devices is far from sensitive than the Samsung screens. Anyway here are some random scribbles done on a Samsung Galaxy Grand.

Evil kid

Pull!

Time to go, sport.

Warrior, prepare.

Resolve, reconcile, ride.

Its one of those midnight sketches that make you go on and on till you fall asleep. This just had to be done. The ball pen with which this was done cost Rs. 5; so much for spending Rs.20,000 on a Wacom tablet!

Reclamation storyboard... funny how the mind works

Resolving to doodle every day is one thing, actually settling down to do something substantial is another. Anyway, some time was spared for storyboarding, that stage of movie or comic-book making where things start to have some semblance to the finished piece. What's funny is that the final frame occurred to me first, and I worked backward to the first frame!
Do movie ideas come from one visual? A flash of imagery from where people work around, get inspired to make a story out of?

This 'opening frame' was created last-

This was the filler-

This frame occurred first, something that came from random doodling. The rest followed.

Still wondering how to take this forward.

Apple-Samsung bite-off

You could see the Apple logo as the bite Samsung has taken in the smartphone market share. Apple's stocks are tumbling and Samsung is gaining on the smartphone/phablet turf. Tables appear to be turning. At this point you may wonder what's ahead for Apple-Samsung. Here's my take on this.

Every company has a DNA of its own. The company stays 'that way' irrespective of changing times. Apple is an innovator. Samsung is a supplier. Knowing Apple, it will innovate in a way that whatever Samsung has 'created' will totally become irrelevant! If you look back at Apple's history, it has ruined competition by constantly disrupting itself. Apple may do so on the OS or the hardware that Google-Samsung may not be able to adapt as smoothly or 'cool'ly.

A follower who gets ahead for a while will always look over its shoulder to see if its tor'mentor' is catching up. Apple has its most formidable opponent today of all time. It can rise like the champion it is. and it will because innovating from the core is in its DNA already.
