Cartoon Storytelling
Steven Fischer's Wonderful, Happy, Cartoony Course
Each participant will produce at least two completed cartoon stories that demonstrates the student’s ability to understand character development, narrative structure, and storytelling.
Your final project is to create two stories – one fiction, one non-fiction – 3-5 pages each, minimum – based on your observation drawings and personal history.
Finished cartoons are due on or before the final session. Your cartoons will need to be scanned so that the instructor has a hard copy version and a digital version of your cartoon story. NOTE: The in-class exercises are used to generate ideas for your final project, you cannot turn in class exercises as your final project.
We will also explore non-fiction storytelling in cartoons and the power of personal storytelling. The central focus is on participants becoming a great observer of life and the characters that inhabit our daily lives. Participants can expect to be introduced to the possibilities cartooning offers as a vehicle to effectively tell a personal story. Participants should realize that while commercial cartooning may require certain skills and abilities, the only limitation in the art of cartoon storytelling are those self-imposed. Anyone willing to express him or herself honestly can create a legitimate comic.
Our objective is to create and complete an original story with original characters. The participant’s finished cartoons will be collected in PDF form as a keepsake.
