Framed Ink : Drawing and Composition for Visual Storytellers

From the animator and illustrator behind your favorite DreamWorks and Netflix films, this installment of the Framed series will instruct visual artists to set a scene's emotion. Learn how to make the audience feel the story while they're reading the story. Using his experiences from working in the comic book industry, movie studios and teaching, Mateu-Mestre introduces the reader to a step-by-step system that will create the most successful storyboards and graphics for the best visual communication. After a brief discussion on narrative art, Mateu-Mestre introduces us to drawing and composing a single image, to composing steady shots to drawing to compose for continuity between all the shots. These lessons are then applied to three diverse story lines - a train accident, a cowboy tale and bikers approaching a mysterious house. In addition to setting up the shots, he also explains and illustrates visual character development, emotive stances and expressions along with development of the environmental setting to fully develop the visual narrative.Author: Mateu-Mestre, Marcos,contributor,Katzenberg, Jeffrey,foreword,Mateu-Mestre, Marcos,author
