COMICS DAY CAMP
After mornings dedicated to French language learning, campers will discover the universe of comics in French and will work on their own story.
No particular skill for drawing is needed! In fact, the workshop will begin with an introduction to the specific comics lexical field, and to the cultural background of francophone comic through the presentation of a varied range of examples.
Campers will then be able to work on the different steps of the construction of a narrative line for the comic strip (how to invent a character, how to cut the story in narratives sequences, how to write the dialogues, which format to choose, etc.).
SKILLS DEVELOPED
Our program is specifically designed to help developing life skills such as confidence, imagination, concentration, and writing abilities all while practising French.
Campers will work on their own storyboard as their final project.
