Description:

This week-long class in the art of the graphic novel will combine reading, discussion, theory and practice. We will read excerpts from key works, and discover the essential conventions of the art form through exploring the excellent sequential art manual Comics by Scott McCloud. The ultimate objective of this class, beyond enhancing reader appreciation of the medium, is to give students the tools to realize a story idea as a graphic novel extract of five pages. Students will learn all steps of the creative process of comics-making, including developing a narrative arc, scripting, thumb-nailing, illustration and coloring. Each student’s five page extract will be included in a printed class anthology.

Students bring their own laptops.
