I dont mean to be so offtopic but does any of you know of a way to get back into an instagram account? I stupidly forgot the account password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me!
@Ira Stefan Thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and im trying it out atm. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
this was INSANELY helpful. ive kinda heard all this stuff before, but the way you articulated it all made it stick in my head and made it seem not so intimidating! thank you!
y’alls videos help so so so much i’ve never written a comic bc my ideas are so simple but ur videos help me define it and give me confidence to start i’ve had this idea for years and i’m finally able to use it. thank you so much 😊
As a Canadian living in America, the Nanaimo bar made me very nostalgic, great video bones! Very insightful, there are so few videos that can explain writing concepts in a way that makes me get them but the examples you provided were super helpful!
what i find really depressing is the fact that it takes me about 10 minutes to build a world with a convinving plot and then another 2 days to make it all work but im practicing drawing humans and anatomy for 2 years every day now and nothing is happening. 0% progress. 5 year olds still draw better stick figures than me. this is sad
Maybe, then, draw your comic with stick figures. Make this your style. If the writing is tight then the reader will connect with the work. The style in which the story is rendered will not be a negative. Don’t concern yourself with trying to draw in the style which you aspire to - for that lies always in the illusory future, which you can never in the moment connect with - but rather create in the style of your present. The passion which drives you is the essence which will make the comic powerful. Just go for it. Quit with the self criticism for this will only ever restrict and water down your output. 🙂🇬🇧
Ya either have someone else draw for you, or draw stick figures, or focus on the story and just draw rough drafts until you're confident enough for a final copy. A storyboard is always very helpful, draw frame by frame. Never bite off more than you can chew.
I felt that in my bones...I can draw well, but I’m just...really slow. And in the time it’s taken me to draw 1 chapter of my comic, I’ve planned out roughly 20 chapters worth of plot. Very frustrating.
think you should take your time and focus on one part of the anatomy (if ur drawing a character) and then move on to another when you are used to drawing them. When I started drawing, I wasn't really good at it so I focused on drawing eyes, and then eventually like faces and now I'm working on drawing different poses without it looking stiff so yeah. I think I personally improved a lot in 3 years of doing that so you could try my method uwu
I'm beginning to try to write my own web comic and your videos have been immensely helpful! Thank you for all the time you and your partner put into these.
Thank you so so much for including a writing exercise! You and Ursula must be so busy, but I speak for myself when I say that I appreciate these lessons so much. In response to the possible scene-building video, yes please!! That is a video I am super excited for it.
Okay. Plot 102. I subscribed after Plot 101. I know this is so two years ago for you but this is great stuff. Thanks. There's a lot of other stuff I want to check in your vid scroll too. 👍
Great and very helpful video. I’m writing my own comic script and the Idea of a constant escalation of the problem wasn’t so clear before I saw this. Thanks! This will aid me greatly moving on with the writing.
your videos are so extremely helpful!!! I've been wanting to create a comic for ages now, but i am a TERRIBLE writer hehe this kind of strucuturing really helps me hev some sort of step by step and have my imagination flow I'll surely be binge watching all your webcomic videos, I'm just sad that I was waaaaaaaay to late for the assignments hahaha
Oh no! I was on holidays when this video came out and I completely missed it! I am gutted I missed the assignment. Any chance you'll be doing more of this assignments?
I hit the like button because I think the content is very good. But the video is so distracting. I'd rather a typical PowerPoint slide with main points than something entirely unrelated. What would be wrong with a blank video or still photo?

I have binged on nanaimo bars waaaaay more than I'd like to admit:'D
what i find really depressing is the fact that it takes me about 10 minutes to build a world with a convinving plot and then another 2 days to make it all work but im practicing drawing humans and anatomy for 2 years every day now and nothing is happening.
0% progress.
5 year olds still draw better stick figures than me.
this is sad

Post your drawings on social media and take constructive criticism
think you should take your time and focus on one part of the anatomy (if ur drawing a character) and then move on to another when you are used to drawing them. When I started drawing, I wasn't really good at it so I focused on drawing eyes, and then eventually like faces and now I'm working on drawing different poses without it looking stiff so yeah.

These videos are so helpful! I'm working on making my first webcomic and this among some of your other videos have helped me flesh the story out.
your videos are so extremely helpful!!! I've been wanting to create a comic for ages now, but i am a TERRIBLE writer hehe
this kind of strucuturing really helps me hev some sort of step by step and have my imagination flow
I'll surely be binge watching all your webcomic videos, I'm just sad that I was waaaaaaaay to late for the assignments hahaha
ur videos are so helpful!💕💕🥺
Wait so remember that one time in that one video u guys said that u guys was tryna review people's webcomic? Or was that just me dreaming?
I love these videos so much, they are SO SO helpful. Thank you!!
Oh no! I was on holidays when this video came out and I completely missed it! I am gutted I missed the assignment. Any chance you'll be doing more of this assignments?

@@Darkenedavo Nice! I am glad you're giving it another go 😀
Thanks for the helpful video brother
Thanks for the help! ☆
Thanks man that helped
This is really cool wow thanks!!
Your videos help me as an artist and writer so much oml. 💕
So in a shorter story, there would be one reaction scene and then one action scene?
Very helpful! Ty💙😸
What about basing your action beats on music.
what program do you use
"Reaction won't progress the plot"
Me: *Legit thinks of a way for a reaction to progress the plot*
I hit the like button because I think the content is very good. But the video is so distracting. I'd rather a typical PowerPoint slide with main points than something entirely unrelated. What would be wrong with a blank video or still photo?
Lol 😂🙌🏾 😴
