INNOVATE! WORKSHOP: Making Comics With George O’Connor
Sunday, November 23 @ 1 p.m.
Children’s Alley – Innovate! Canopy
What makes a comic a comic, as opposed to a picture book or novel? What are some of the things that make up a comic (like panels, word bubbles, and gutters), and what are the things that make up a story (like a protagonist and conflict)? Join bestselling author-illustrator George O’Connor for this exclusive digital comic-making workshop to find out! Using your prompts, he’ll create a group comic story and then lead everyone in picking its components – like character, setting, and action – out of a hat to make your own one-page comic using iPads and Apple Pencils! Recommended for ages 8-14.
This event is an INNOVATE! featured workshop. All featured workshops require a FREE ticket to attend due to limited seating. Tickets may be picked up at the Info Booth in Children’s Alley; a standby line will be available for each workshop in the event a ticketed attendee does not show up.
