As Lesson 7-Final
(Week 7)
A one page comic book story is a sequential panel series that tells a story. The
number of panels will depend on the how the artist works on the given text.
For this activity, the pupil may look into a short story or poem or a portion of a
bigger story that they want to illustrate.
The first part is to create a rough sketch of a story board on how to lay-out the
series of panels and the how the text will be divided. The lay-out should consider
the S-type sequence as it is the natural flow on how people read (see the sample
above).
After they finalize their lay-out, using the measuring tools and drawing materials,
they will recreate their story board into the ½ cartolina that will serve as their
formal comic book page. They will use their pencils first then ink and end by
coloring their work. Lines for the panels should consistently be thicker and the
inclusion of the title panel should be placed as well.
Another alternative for this activity is cutting pieces of paper into the shape and
appropriate size of their panels before pasting them on their ½ cartolina.
