Bring a Fresh Eye to Your Comics With Summer Visions!
THIS WEEK:
Sat., June 11, 2022 w/ Jeff Benham
Putting Pencil to Paper (Opening Up Panels, Their Contents, and the Space Between)
Evaluating how your story contends with time and space on a page.
This summer, 7000 BC will pull your comic project into focus with workshops to explore aspects of your vision -- and improve on them! Shed the peripheral and reveal your concepts as we accompany you through your creative process.
Our 8-week Pay-What-You-Can Summer Workshop Series
is designed to run as a companion to the comic that you are creating
now. Each Saturday, you'll be using your own project in a workshop
illuminating a different topic. From refining your characters' image to
designing your pages to keeping the costs down, we'll help you overcome
obstacles and clarify your insights.
How: All classes work individually or as a series. Workshops highlighted in blue are linked and currently available for registration.

ThumbNAILING Your Story Into Shape (Get Your Story's Layout to Land Where You Want!)

Or...intentionally add suspense when the reader turns the page!? Take
command of where your story lands with thumbnailing.
