The student will begin with story and character development and then will proceed with narrative development through visual language (drawing). Script writing, storyboarding, penciling, inking, panel organization and character development will be covered. The object of the course is that the student develops and clarifies a unique personal visual style through storytelling. Carries an Art lab fee.
