January 27th - Group Critique #4

Hallo, Allies!

After our romp to the Rubin, it's time to return to the classroom and put the focus on our own creations. This week, we're returning to regular group critique sessions! Join us in Room 703G with whatever you're working on in class or for the CA Zine, whether you've got a plot outline to discuss, thumbnails to sharpen, or pencils to ponder.

GROUP CRITIQUE
This Friday, 1/27
6:30 - Room 703G


Bring work to share, in-progress or finished!
We'll have three groups: developed comics, story pitches, and sketches/illustrations. Check under the cut for specifics, coming events, and other business, including information regarding the CA Zine and the Fresh Meat Poster Search.


Don't forget to come prepared! 

If you're bringing pages to critique, be sure to have something to take down notes on. Sticky notes that you can place on the comic to write and draw on are highly recommended, as are photocopies that your peers can read along from and scribble on. 

Be sure to bring drafts of scripts, outlines, thumbnails, or any other prep material for the Story Critique. Try to memorize a concise pitch that will draw your peers into your story!

If you're showing off sketches and illustrations and you're interested in working on our Fresh Meat poster, leave us with a photocopy or two with your work and contact information.

The new CA Zine is looking for submissions of 1 to 6-page self-contained comic stories for its first issue, aiming to be printed by MoCCA Fest '12. Submit photocopies of your comic to the senior cartooning studios or as 72 dpi files to blisterfish (at) gmail (dot) com by mid-March. More information to come!

Each week, bloggers Eric and Hayley will randomly select a student's mini from the box and offer readers a preview of the comic and their thoughts. We hope to improve student promotion and give members a space to show their work to a greater audience.
