Creating a Comic Page

Course by David Finch
Course In Progress
David Finch
In my course I teach you how to create a comic book page from scratch. You'll learn how to break down the page of a script, figure out the page layout, and go through the process of completing a comic page. There's even lessons on crosshatching!

Hey, a question regarding speech bubbles and I suppose a request to include in a future lesson: How do you tackle making the bubbles the right size for the text that is to go inside them. Do you write a scribble of the text before sketching the bubble or just build intuition for it? How do you keep bubble sizes consistent, so that if the same size of text is used (mostly), the padding around the text doesn't vary a distracting amount.

Hi, does anyone know if this course is complete? The last video (video 29 at this point) references an upcoming video, but I'm wondering if this course has just been abandoned by Proko and team.

Once again, aren’t we suppose to get a new lesson a week? It’s already Friday and no new lesson has been posted. Also there are many people asking for pointers and expert advice on drawing comics, is David ever going to jump in and answer the student’s questions?

Hey there, editor here! The goal is one lesson a week, though every once in a while we'll need to skip a week to work on more complicated episodes. Some lessons are just way more time intensive to edit than others so we didn't want to put any hard dates on anything, sorry for the mistake in communication. I'll ask our web team if we can do a better job labeling the frequency of video releases for our live courses like this one so we can better match everyone's expectations. On a side note, we are skipping an episode this week so we can get the next few all tightened up together.

@lelashiba18 Regular feedback from the instructor is not included in this course, however, there will be multiple Critique lessons, focusing on student work chosen by @David Finch

Aren’t we supposed to have one lesson a week? It’s now Wednesday and there’s still no new lesson up for this week, even though it’s been a full week since the first lesson. When exactly can we expect new lessons by each week? Also, several people have asked how many lessons are there going to be total and no one from the proko team has responded. We deserve to know what exactly our $100+ paid for. Can someone please respond and answer our questions?

I don't even mind waiting that much, as long as there's some communication about what's going on.

I can’t wait!! This is what I need to get to the next level. I’ve been drawing for 12 years straight now, but can’t understand sequential art. I would’ve paid Triple.
