What other medium would you want to see your story in?

[joannekwan]

Secunda: Live action movie/short series
Demon House: Live action series, but it better have some good practical effects or bomb cgi
Heavy Horns: Live action one or two season series. I could also see it as a condensed stage play for some reason.
Sarota Springs: Live action movie
Erie Waters: Stop-motion animated movie, with the whimsy of Laika but with the more adult feel of Anomalisa.
At Ease: even though it's a spin-off of Erie Waters, I feel it's more grounded in real life (ghost aside), so live action short film.

and not published on Tap yet, but will be in a few days …
Typhon and Echidna: Stop-motion animated short, to harken back to Jason and the Argonauts and Harryhausen's work, but with modern day technology.

LOL is it obvious my main inspiration for the past few years have been movies?

My comic used to be a music project (prog/folk metal), so that's what I most easily imagine it as (maybe more than as a comic, actually! Because I have musical ideas for much later in the project, at a stage I'm not going to start drawing until at least a year).

Legio Arcana could work as an animated series

[buttersphere]

I'd have to say I'd adore seeing my ideas in any animated media. It's something I'd actually love to explore later down the line in the form of a comic trailer! I just need enough time to sit down and do it haha.

[AbelDraws]

An full animated series would be cool, just to be able to give the cast voices hahahah

But in a more realistic approach, I do plan on making some animatics later on. The comic will tell the story on its own, but the animatics will be there to enhance the experience <3

[maplefox]

In my mind, Secrets of the Archive is definitely playing out as an animated series. Something similar to Bungou Stray Dogs or D.Grayman.(yeah, those are my favs XD)
I can't really imagine a live-action... that's just... weird

[darthmongoose]

I would totally like to see an animated series, probably like Netflix She-Ra or Korra or something; anime influenced western animation, Errant isn't episodic, so somewhere it could be binged would be best.

Other than that, since I'm a member of Voxus and we already dub comics and games like Paranatural, Property of Hate, and most famously, Homestuck and Undertale, we've already got a joke ongoing about making "Let's Read Errant" in our usual style with the panels synced to voices and music. So that might happen. I'd also really like to get some of my composer friends (a lot of them formerly of the Homestuck music team) making an original album of music for the comic to put on Bandcamp.

I'm fairly sure most people say this, but I'd love to see my series as an animated show. I feel like it'd be a really chill, pastel slice of life love story. Similar to the Doukyuusei movie, but a bit less artsy, and more characters to work with. I'd love it, but I can only dream.

At some point, I've considered finding some youtube voice actors to do a little audio episode for me, but that's not gonna happen for quite some time. Haha.

Video gaaaame

I end up visualizing a lot of my stories from the same universe as a more serious version of Mario & Luigi/Paper Mario or a similar type of JRPG, for the engaging nature of the magic system. It's a pipe dream but it would be cool to adapt Splitting Image and the rest into games, with new content and bosses to adjust the slower parts of the story.

In Splitting Image's case, the party is 5 characters but only 3 can be used at a time, greatly favoring Mortimer because he'd be the only one with the ability to parry+counter attacks and not just dodge. However, the drawback would be that he can't gradually recover MP like the rest and needs to use draining techniques or convert HP into it once he's out of juice, unless there are recovery items avaliable.

I also keep thinking of superboss situations when it's literally never going to be used in the comic, but hey the imagination has to run wild

I'd like to see my novel 'Oasis, the Rise' become a cheesy CW tv show. Specifically CW. It just suits that tv channel to me.

[IndigoShirtProd]

BBS would be an animated series, akin to Saturday morning cartoons of yesteryear or the early 2000s. It'd be on Nick or CN, not Disney. Maybe the WB if it was still around or 4kids. I've always wanted to be a showrunner.

[TAMAnnoying]

Well this is a fun thought experiment- to be completely fair I’m a big fan of animation- and considering half the cast is giant lizard people it would just be far easier to have everything be animated instead of going into live action- altho if I was forced to do live action then we’d Gonna have a long talk about practical effects cause I can’t stand looking at bad cgi (and I’m aiming low here but,) I imagine won’t have the budget for passable cgi. So giant lizard heads (we’re talking good cosplay levels) on actors and trick of the eye stuff that a lot of movies and shows had to do in the past.

Now on a scale I know most don’t think about- table tops. I’m actually play testing a few homebrew 5e games right now with people for the fun of it and it’s going pretty good so far (at lest at low levels). 5e is the easiest and simplest but I’d love to get to a point where I can convert it to a Pathfinder game, but that would take WAY more time and effort and homebrew XD

I'd certainly love to see Octeal as an animated series. I don't............. really see it happening though.

The fact that the main character has four octopus-like arms would probably make it too difficult for the majority of companies to animated and those few who could probably wouldn't be interested in some modestly-known webcomic, irregardless of how popular it gets in the future... I went for a pretty difficult design aesthetic in spite of my current artistic skill level and in certain ways I have to deal with that decision...

... but ya, I definitely would love to see it as an animated cartoon. Might have to alter some of the plot-lines to make it tv-friendly but unlike a lot of folks I think I would be open to that.

[Jophiel]

Something interactive like a visual novel with rpg elements would fit the Neriaverse ;~ That way there could be missions, training of some people in your team, etc. An idea of mine before was a what-if about the endings being based on their aligment over the course of the story.

I can see the alternate universe of "Knew You Inside Out" as a visual novel with multiple endings. Kinda like otome games but the romance might be optional or just flat out defied in other routes.

My main story- if I ever make it into a comic- would have animatics to accompany it sometimes. I like daydreaming about my characters in fake Amv's so those would be fun to incorporate

[AmazementComics]

I'd say all of them (except maybe rock opera). See for me, it isn't just ONE story. It's multiple stories with multiple characters and their supporting cast. I feel it'd be easier for a film director, video game developer, animator to pick and choose what character from my comics universe they want to adapt in another form of media. In fact, my goal is to one day become an animator and adapt my comics universe's staple characters, (the character or characters you associate the most when thinking of a franchise like for Marvel, you think Spider-Man) The Action Fruit Society, into an action adventure show.

[CodeMonkeyArts]

I would love to see my story as a graphic novel and/or an animated series. A super dark, probably only allowed as a release only on Netflix or something, but still an animated series with preferably an eastern animation bent (like Castlevania or Hellsing Ultimate).

Not sure how I would imagine it as a live action but that would be cool too!

[StopWatchers]

@Tesorini - What a great thread topic! I love reading through what everyone wrote, and it's so interesting that almost everyone has already thought of this before. Myself included!

I'm a huge movie fan so I would love to see Stop Watchers as a live action movie. That's how I picture it in my head actually as I wrote it (the script is literally laid out as a movie script) and now as I think of page layouts, I see it as scenes in a movie with and do the camera angles I see in my head. I even know what actors I'd want casted if it were made right now!

Stop Watchers | Tapas

[ButterflyEmpress]

Definitely an anime. It'd look god awful in live action lol. I'd stick to streaming services, especially since it's heavily story based. The plot would probably deviate a bit from the comic, though. If I had the skills and connections I'd start a crowdfunding campaign for it.

Be cool to see Runner animated but I would settle for print

Id be cool if a cosplayer dressed up as my characters.
