Class experience
Does your learner aspire to be a writer, illustrator, or sequential artist? "Mangas, Zines, Comics and Things!" is a 1 week camp that guides students through the entire process of developing a comic or manga. Students will write, draw, and publish a comic book or manga using the zine format. A zine is a miniature magazine used by artists to self publish illustrated books such as comics. A zine can be made by anyone using materials as simple as pencil and paper to more elaborate materials...
By the end of the course, students will be able to: Develop an original story idea as a narrative Develop and design characters that are either protagonists or antagonists Develop and design a setting where the narrative takes place Use drawing techniques and their own style to draw a landscape or background. Use drawing techniques to draw characters in action Use drawing techniques to draw objects Use narrative and dialogue to add language to a sequential story. Draw a story using pages that include a clear beginning, middle, and end. Use ink and pencil to create light and shadows within a drawing. Use coloring techniques to help the characters and backgrounds stand out. Write and draw a comic or manga that tells a clear sequential story. Publish a comic or manga using the zine format

Please be sure all manga, comics, and graphic novels are school appropriate for young audiences. I cannot allow any content with nudity, violence, profanity, or adult content into the classroom. If your learner would like to share his or her favorite comic book,and there are questions regarding the content, feel free to contact me. I am happy to preview any book at least 48 hours in advance of the class. I often share my authored works in the classroom. You can preview my published titles online, and I am happy to direct you to them by request. I read these comics to my fourth graders while teaching in the public school system.
