Comic-Making, Map-Making, and Re-Shaping Workshop

 

Jake-with-MapComic-Making, Map-Making, and Re-Shaping Workshop
April 14 from noon to 2 p.m. in the ModLab (Fine Arts 215)

What if comics weren’t patterned after books? What if comics had some other shape? In this hands-on workshop, comics artist Rob Berry will challenge us to envision and design a comic story that unfolds like a road map rather than a book. Berry has prepared a template for page design using ComicLife software and will bring examples of work made in this format. Those attending the workshop will use ComicLife to build maps of their own. This is a hands-on, art-making workshop.

Free Lunch will be served.

RSVP recommended but not required.

Join us Thursday, January 21 at 12:00 in the ModLab (Fine Arts 215) for a workshop called “Tell Me a Secret.” The workshop will be led by visiting artist Vinicius Marquet, and lunch will be served.

Marquet, author of Anacrón: hipótesis de un producto todo, on display in the “E-Lit: A Matter of Bits” exhibition in the Stedman Gallery, will lead this workshop as part of an experience-sharing project between communities. Participants will graphically depict secrets shared by people in the Netherlands. At the end of the workshop, participants will be invited to anonymously share their own secrets in order to feed future versions of the project.
