Elements of a Comic (using Jane Eyre!)- DRAFT
For my visualization project, I am focusing on the elements of a comic. What makes a comic, a comic? How do I read it so that I can understand the story's full meaning? What choices are graphic novel authors making that alter the reading experience? These are the sort of questions I hope my annotated images begin to answer, and I will be using an excerpt from Amy Corzine and John Burn's graphic adaptation of Charlotte Bronte's magnum opus, Jane Eyre, as a starting point.
Here is the link to my first Thinglink creation, which defines and briefly explains the various comic elements that readers should be aware of when reading this edition of Jane Eyre: https://www.thinglink.com/scene/1654262895548039171
I created a second image which, using the same page from Jane Eyre, provides a more in-depth explanation and analysis of how the previously-identified comic elements are being used by the authors to enhance the reading experience: https://www.thinglink.com/scene/1654575524254580738
