Workshop Description:
Refine your ideas or explore a new story surrounded by peers in this 2 week comics workshop led by writer and illustrator, Davis Cathcart.
In this comics workshop, students will learn how to put their story goals before their visuals in order to understand the fundamentals of visual storytelling and how the story drives imagery when the two are working in tandem. Students will execute on the ins and outs of story structure, character and telling a narrative in the cuts.
