Before Spring Break we were exploring the structure of comics and graphic novels. We explored how text and visual features work together in graphic novels to tell a story. From organizing the panels and gutters, to different perspective shots, and various ways to create feeling, suspense, emotion, drama, connection.

We looked at what features are important to a story and explored the various elements of a plot.  We looked at different ways to introducing characters and develop the setting.  We also examined how rising actions build up to a climax and how conflicts are resolved through falling action.

Using the resources listed below you can finish your graphic novel assignment in paper or digital format.  Once you have completed your assignment please upload a copy of your finished work to your Blogfolios for assessment.
