Graphic Novel and Sequential Art Workshop

THIS WORKSHOP will provide a brief overview of working within the structures of graphic novels and various forms of sequence art. The workshop will cover the history of graphic novels and sequential art, methods of execution, scripting the story, layout, materials used and creating a page of art. All levels of skill and experience are invited to participate. If you have already created a graphic novel or are working on one, please bring it to the workshop to share with the instructor. This is a great opportunity for feedback.
