Studio 2 Pencil Pages

 Pencilled pages from my Studio 2 class. We were given a script to work from and here are 4 out of the 5 pages that are finished. I will post the fifth page and some inked ones soon.

This project was a big step forward in two areas: storytelling and rendering. Storytelling wise, this comic just fell together rather easily. All of the problems I had before with camera placement and cluttered panels have left and I'm pulling back a lot more. I'm using more low angle and high angle shots to make each moment more interesting, and I'm using camera movement here better than I have in the past.

As far as rendering, I'm getting the hang of developing a character's volume in a 2D plane and I think I've done some of the best pencilling I've done thus far. Of course I'm not 100% happy with these but these are a definite step in a good direction.

The story here is that the man and woman have broken up and are fighting over who gets the cat. There's more to it than that, but I hope some of that is evident from the art.
