This topic explores the key elements of comic book story writing. We will analyse the basic technical elements necessary to write and draw a comic strip story telling Cultural Heritage.
- The white space: helps to understand the basic mechanism that gives life to the comic strip and how comics are a secret pact between author and reader and how the sequentially of words and images is in fact the foundation of this narrative tool.
- From strip to page: it helps us to understand the functionality of the composition and the sense of reading a comic strip. The technical elements such as vignettes, grids, space and narrative format are the basis to start building the story.
- Noises and words: we learn the right relationship between text and images in the media, their complementarity and functionality. How to use words to tell stories? Balloons are the symbol of chatter and their form can be different depending on what we want to tell. Add to this lettering, symbols, lines and other visual elements needed to bring the words to life
