Thank you so much for breaking down the panel basics like this! Your description of how straight or diagonal border lines affect the feeling of a panel was especially helpful :D
Thanks for this! This is the type of info I was looking as I come from a digital illustration background with no experience in comic. Looking forward to seeing your next videos 👍
This well drawn page reads like a storyboard. However, I think you give away top much of a clue about the victim's face before she discovers him. I'd suggest, cut the first panel of the bottom tier as that has already been shown. Show her instead turning over the body, reveal the horrific face and have her react with a big screaming expression. That would neatly complete that scene on that page. Alternatively, you could have her big reaction and then cut to what she sees.
Thank you for your feedback. This scene ends one the next page with a classic pulp style full page spread of her rolling back the body to reveal the mangled face and her screaming. The page in the video is about pulling back the rubber band so the splash has snap. The extra panels are designed to slow down time for as long as possible.
@@MattCampbellArt1 Yes. I guessed that was your strategy but you gave away the surprise in two panels on that page. If the partial face shots were in shadow or you just saw a pool of blood leading up to the body then you have the foundation for a big reveal on the next page. But a well drawn page, and just my thoughts about the pacing. I thought it was quite a cinematic sequence.

Thank you. I will have to make more comic videos.
These videos are a treasure, great reference and refreshment memory.
Glad you like them!

1:34 Incorrect. All Michael Bay films have a beginning, middle and end. They have story. From "Bad Boys" to "Transformers." All have story.
Thanks for commenting. :)
