It will happen.<br />I like the way you are approaching the story.<br />I like the various scenarios, the way you have thought out the characters.<br />You can now go right ahead with your Final Product which will be a book consisting of a series of 4 frame cartoons.<br />If some "stories" or "episodes" go beyond four frames to eight and more, then you will be moving into a larger story mode, with longer episodes.<br />Let's see whether the process boxes you into the four frame mode (which is a good commercial mode) or takes you into creating a much larger and longer narrative.<br />I would like you simultaneously, as you do your strips, to find strip cartoons that already engage with the same theme you are working with to become aware of the space you are working within. How do you expand or contract (in terms of your stories and the specific insights they bring) your work? <br />I would also like you to find some time to read perhaps some of the teacher-student-school story books that are around - Tom Brown's Schooldays, Billy Bunter series, Jennings, William (Richmal Crompton) etc.elf_asurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14150005989299987267noreply@blogger.com
