Mastering Comic Page Design: How to Craft Dynamic Comic Pages
Thank you to everyone who joined this masterclass live, and a huge thank you to Manuela O. Duque for sharing her incredible insights!
In this recording, Manuela, an MTM Sequential Arts graduate from Colombia, takes us on an intimate journey through the art of comic book page design. She explains how to break down a script into thumbnails, explore panel composition, and use grids and perspective to guide the reader’s eye. Her practical tips - ranging from balancing dialogue with art to experimenting with dynamic layouts - offer a real-world glimpse into the creative process of sequential art.
