comic activity

Sun Aug 9, 2009, 12:15 PM
Hey dudes!, recently I was searching something about make another view in the way to tell a visual storytelling for the project I´m doing witg my friends of 656 comics, so then, I visit the page of Matt Madden:
[link]

You most go to see this blog is so educative maybe you know the guy, anyway, the point is that he has there a comic activuty so curios for me, in his own works:
Draw a six-panel grid on your piece of paper (I was curious to make more panels, then I did 9 for my excercise like you could see)

Get out your brush, ink it up, and, without thinking too hard or planning in advance, quickly make a single mark in each panel: a line, a squiggle, a blot, in different sizes and densities.

Rinse out your brush and let your marks dry.

Look at each panel and try to see shapes or parts of outlines in the marks you’ve made: the curve of a nose, for example, or the drape of a coat, a tree, whatever. Take a pencil (or inking tool) and add to the marks, drawing what you see in your mind’s eye. Do this for each panel.

Now hold the page back and read the six panels in sequence. Is there a story implied there? Look for suggestions of a narrative thread and tease it out by adding to each panel: backgrounds, new figures, dialogue, sound effects. One of your marks may lead to the creation of a character who becomes your protagonist. In that case you may choose to re-draw him in other panels to give the story better continuity and flow.

I found it so interesting, and of cuorse I star to doing my exercices, I will uploading this ones, some os the marks in the panels are mine, another making for a friends, is so great look what you can story result of this exercise, try yourself.

-Entonces, ¿El tiempo no mata a los Dioses?
Respondió
-No, pero durante tres o cuatro mil años es adorado y durante tres o cuatro mil duerme, solo el tiempo permanece siempre despierto.
