The Graphic Novel Creative & Production Process: How It’s Different from Other Types of Books
April 4, 2023 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm EDT
With Literary Agent Janna Morishima
In this Digital Workshop, agent Janna Morishima delves into the nitty gritty of graphic novel script-writing, illustration, and production. She’ll discuss how the production process differs from picture books and other illustrated books, and whether there are any advantages to the GN format. She’ll also discuss collaborations, how to write scripts with the artist in mind, and how to foster good communication within the team. She’ll also examine differences in format, complexity, and page count among graphic novels for different age ranges. And she’ll talk about timelines, from script to thumbnails to inks, coloring, lettering, copy editing, printing, and more. Finally, she’ll discuss what kinds of stories are currently most popular in GN format.
