‘Zits’ coming to CBS

I highlighted a series of  motion comic adaptations of comic strip ‘Zits’ back in December 2009. Deadline.com have recently announced that it has been sold to CBS and will air on television in the near future. It’s unclear however if the format will remain as a motion comic adapation, or will be adapted into more conventional forms of animation for television.

From Deadline.com:

“Zits is a live-action family comedy based on the comic strip that explores the sardonic wit and hormonal angst of 16-year-old Jeremy Duncan.”

What the duck!

Humourous little motion comic, which ably demonstrates a comic strip aesthetic within the animation genre. It also comments on the digital world we live in by referencing photoshop and  ‘editing’ out one of the characters with the familiar ‘marquee’ selection box.
