New Comics Course

From Karen Rubins :

Comics and Graphic Novels Course For Adults

West Dean College, Chichester Suitable for all levels.

You will learn about comic and graphic novel storytelling techniques, and how to create your own visual narrative. Everyone will end the course with one completed comic page, and the skills to continue their work for themselves. We will look at comic and graphic novel art styles, the use of text and images, the "grammar" of comic art, use of sound effects, abstraction, and styles. You provide a story from your own experience, or one you wish to adapt into the medium.

Comics and Graphic Novels
