The history

The media has spread throughout the twentieth century with origins in the previous century, but there are examples in different ages related to the need to give representations or to associate texts with images. During prehistoric times cave paintings used images to tell hunting reports, daily life or certain ideas or desires. In the necropolis of Saqqara appears the funerary chapel dedicated to the architect Ankhmahor, where the representations are interspersed with inscriptions that, in addition to describing the subjects depicted, also report the dialogues between the latter.

The creation

riccardoferrandes592 — 2018-10-16 19:40:59 UTC

The first step is to create the story, a plot that binds the drawings on the pages. In the writing of the screenplay the vignettes are described in detail, choosing the type of framing, the size and every detail that is fundamental to the narration.
Once the written part has been completed, the pages must be organized. We proceed by sketching our pages on a sheet. Inside, the vignettes and their contents are drawn in outline. Once the sketch of the page satisfies us (this may require numerous attempts) we enlarge the draft, by hand or with a photocopier and we draw all the details. The last step is to inking and, if necessary, coloring. If you want you can add shadows and / or other details.
