This course explores the expansive world of comic book stories and drawing styles. While learning the fundamental aspects of comic book creation and design, students explore the diverse worlds of traditional and contemporary comics. Students will create original characters and story lines and will be introduced to techniques, materials and disciplines used to create professional comic art. Students will learn the following skills: Layout, penciling, lettering and inking. Demonstrations and class critiques will supplement studio work. A complete materials list will be distributed at the first class meeting. Basic drawing skills are strongly recommended. This course is open to students ages 13 and older.
