Graphic novels are taking the world by storm—why not create your own? In this class, you’ll dive into the art of visual storytelling and learn how to craft your own "sequential art." You’ll plan your original story, develop characters, and map out your plot, using panels and transitions to guide readers through the narrative. You'll also explore how to enhance your story with speech bubbles, sound effects, and caption boxes. Plus, you'll get hands-on experience with lettering, inking, and coloring to bring your graphic novel to life!
