How You Draw: How Does Art Affect Story?

People make comics to tell stories. But how are those stories affected by the art style they’re told in? What are the ways that art style change the content, audience, and storytelling for a comic? Do artists choose their style, or does their style choose them? Featuring Dave Roman, Salgood Sam, Jim Rugg, James Turner, and Abby Denson. Moderated by Walter Dickinson.

Comics in Strange Places
Saturday, May 8th, 12:45 – 1:30pm, Learning Center 1
Everyone’s talking about their new graphic novel these days. But you can find comics in other places than books — newspapers, magazines, textbooks, and on the internet. How does the multiplicity of forms of presentation for comics affect their format and context? Featuring cartoonists Frank Cammuso, Chip Zdarsky, Danielle Corsetto, and Abby Denson. Moderated by MK Reed.
And to get you extra excited, Toronto’s National Post has been profiling TCAF guests and here is my profile, but please do read them all!
