Explore
the many aspects of the comics creation process, from scripting and
storytelling, to layouts, panel placement and fluidity, thumbnailing,
the basics of creating the finished art, and traditional and nontraditional
format and book design. Along the way, well touch on comics
theory and history. Class participants can produce stories individually
or collaboratively, culminating in a completed mini-comic, ready to

collective.
