What was your inspiration for Brazen Violations? It seems to be such a unique combination of original concepts - crazy concepts! (i mean that in a complimentary way) with very unusual characters. What did you you draw on?
Jonathan Macpherson
Hi Jenny, thanks! There wasn't a single inspiration, rather the exploration of different characters. Concepts came while exploring the key characters. As they grew, aspects of the story emerged that I began to focus on, that demanded focus. And a lot of the time, that exploration starts with simply asking "what if...?"

Interesting. Thanks for your detailed answer! How about Cakes Canella? The idea of him slamming a man's head through a cake cabinet and holding it against broken glass while the guy bleeds to death, and simultaneously reaching for in for a cake which he eats (for which he gets his nickname) is scary but also hilarious, as are many other scenes. Is that intentional, or incidental?
