Cartooning
Don't forget to log every day with specific details about what you planned or accomplished.
Goal: For this project, you will be creating individual cartoon strips, individual cartoon single panels, or a comic book.
Artifacts: Scanned images of your project.
Details to Know:
There are a few books on the project shelf that instruct how to draw cartoon characters.
I have Extra Fine Sharpie markers and cardstock on the shelf behind my desk.
The watercolor markers would be available for this project if you wish to make your comics in color.
It is expected that you create a rough draft and final copy of your project. It is suggested that you have a classmate read your rough draft to make sure that the story of your comic can be understood by others.
Your story and characters should be classroom appropriate with no violence.
Your Project Plan should include a very brief storyboard overview of your plan for your comic.
The link for your choice writing should be a page about how the steps in creating a comic.

1. 2 full page panels or 2 pages of comic strips--can be in color or black and white.
