As part of our involvement with The Lakes International Comic Arts Festival we took a group of First Year students to attend a lecture and workshop given by the legendary comic artist (and theorist) Frank Santoro (33).
The venue was 'The Box' in Kendal, an 'interesting' piece of architecture so modern it hasn't been finished yet.
Yes 'The Box' seemed a bit wonky to us too.
Frank gave a very entertaining and informative lecture on the construction and pacing of comics, ably assisted by Aidan Koch and ex-Marvel artist Connor Willumsen.

After the lecture the students (and staff) attended a comics masterclass with Frank and Connor.

We used frames taken from various Alfred Hitchcock films

ReplyDeleteThe next big step is marketing the business after the logo is made based on these elements. Your brand is ready to be celebrated.

I liked the importance of keeping human/humane touch with the students and parents in this era of digital literacy.
