Comic Character Design [Ages 10-16] - Moorestown
Comic Character Design [Ages 10-16] - Moorestown
In this class, students will learn the methods of sequential art by combining words (what the characters say) with pictures (showing what they do) in order to effectively tell a story. Students will start off with a series of individual and group exercises—action-to-action, moment-to-moment, and scene-to-scene—that will help guide them through the process of conceptualizing and developing their ideas. Next, they will refine thumbnail sketches of characters and page layouts accompanied by a script to give the story greater clarity and impact. The final result will be a comic featuring superheroes, manga, cartoon, or any conceivable host of characters.
Note: “Comic Book Illustration” is not required as a prerequisite for this course, but it is recommended for those who want to first learn the basics or who wish to draw comics without an accompanying storyline.

 

**This class is for students ages 10 to 16.
