December 7, 2020"All of France draws" during the year of comics!
Monday, November 23, the students of the ECMS final year class had the opportunity to participate in a workshop proposed by the author of comic strip Afif Khaled. The class has been working since the beginning of the year on the production of comic strips depicting a professional situation seen during the internship. The work is done during co-intervention courses with Ms. Bergeron in French, Ms. Laplagne in sales and the teacher-librarian.
The city of Angoulême comics offered us to participate in an action of All of France draws (workshops offered throughout France on the occasion of the year of comics) with the intervention of the author Afif Khaled.
The author first presented his work to the students: comics, illustrations for magazines, video games, cartoons... then he focused his presentation on the storyboard and the codes of comics: the plans and the meaning of especially reading.
Finally, Afif Khaled took part in the drawing game with the students… Behind each face, isn't there a geometric shape?
The students after a few examples got down to drawing the portrait of their classmate.
In conclusion, the author gave us a demonstration of the importance of sketching before inking his drawing by making a portrait of a student.
