Comic Book Class for Young Artists 13 and up w/ CHRISTIE CRAPETICO “EmoWeasel”

A five day comic book building class

JULY 13 – 17

This is a five day long comic book building class where we will be going into the depths of how to create a mini four page comic with a cover. Over the five days we will be covering scripting and story building, page layouts and compositions, bringing the pages to a finish state, the importance of cover designs, and the last day we will just show off what we’ve done and celebrate that we created a mini comic.

And along with having class time, there will be a Facebook page set up for the class so we may share our work and help each other out outside of the class.

About the Facilitator Christie Crapeticio “EmoWeasel”

I am a San Francisco-based illustrator. I create web comics, dark illustrations, pattern designs, and cartoons. I studied at the Academy of Art University for six years. I majored in comics and minored in children’s book illustration.

When I’m working on a piece I usually work in pen and ink. I believe the texture of the pen adds more to the story than color can. Most of my work is done black and white, but when I do use color it is usually digital over the pen and ink. I sometimes dabble in other mediums such as oil paints, color pencils, and gouache paints.
