30 years ago this week in 1994, we locked our cast for the first voice recording sessions of "The Last Express" at Zoetrope Studios in San Francisco. You can see the actors' video auditions here: www.jordanmechner.com/en/library/1... Next batch of my weekly journals will be posted on Wednesday.
I've finished reading @jmechner.bsky.social's book Replay. The story about his family is very exciting and of important historical significance. Towards the end it became very sad. A wonderful book that I recommend to everyone. I promise I'll write my positive review soon.

In 1985, I asked my brother David (age 15) to be the rotoscope model for my new game, Prince of Persia. 38 years later, I've made him a (present day) cartoon character in my new graphic novel memoir REPLAY. jordanmechner.com/en/books/rep... Thanks, bro!

Like Steven Reich’s 'Different Trains', Jordan Mechner’s graphic memoir 'Replay' is a work of introspection that looks to history and tragic synchronicity.

I had the pleasure to chat with Scott Tong last week on @npr.orgwbur.org/hereandnow/2... (10-minute listen) Also at the link are sample pages depicting some of my early game-development adventures in graphic-novel form.
The graphic novel interweaves his personal history with the story of how his grandfather and father fled Vienna to escape the Nazis.
