Cabaret for Queer Criminals

featuring Sam Datum, Newton Clementine, and Tavern Barz

......

I initially wrote the Tavern Barz Tavern as a reference to the "Villain Bar" trope, but I guess things got a lot gayer as time progressed. Considering the fact that "queer coded villains" is such a well worn writing device, I guess it's only natural that the Tavern essentially became a queer night club. This only became more obvious to me when I realized that Sam Datum (top) was agender.

Newton Clementine (middle) is the usual entertainer at the bar, while Sam usually works behind the scenes. But I imagine they're not against getting up on stage every once in a while.

(technobabble behind the cut)

Characters and backgrounds were initially illustrated in Affinity Photo with liberal use of photo assets. One might recognize "The Swing" by Jean-Honoré Fragonard as the painting behind Sam Datum.

3D effects, lighting, and color correction was done in After Effects, with most of the shadows produced by placing the character assets in 3D space and shining a spotlight at them.

The shadow behind Newton Clementine is affected by the underlying curtains. This effect was created by seperating the curtains into two layers and offseting the front layer from the back.
