Perfect for beginner level students between the ages of 9-17 who have little-to-no or some experience in drawing and/or comic drawing. In this 6-class series, students will learn about the process of comics development from initial concept to final comic. Students will be separated into groups by age / skill level. They will learn how to:

• Create a comic concept

• Develop a story and create characters

• Sketch the characters and their actions

• Create a storyboard

• Ink the comic

Students will collaborate within a group to create one complete comic book. Each student will contribute one page or more to the overall comic story. Students will each walk away with a copy of their group’s full and completed comic book, as well as the original version of the page(s) they contributed to the group’s comic book.

No need to have taken prior comics workshops with us. If you have taken prior workshops, please note this program will complement that experience by going more in depth on the fundamentals and cover new material. In addition, this will be the first program we’ve run to create a full collaborative comic book.

Important:
Due to limited availability, we are unable to provide make-up classes for missed classes. Should a student miss a class, we will in our best efforts try to catch students up during regularly scheduled class times. Due to the collaborative nature of this class, limited space, and specialty subject matter, please ensure you can commit to all 6 weeks before signing up. We will not be offering any credits or refunds for missed classes, and we will not be able to provide refunds less than 14 days prior to the start of the initial class.
