We're starting Flip Books
Today you'll be story-boarding your ideas for a basic flip book. There are lots of really cools ones available online. I'll link to a few here: Here's one about a bus gone wild. Here's one done in a Matrix style. Here's a sweet and sappy one. And here's another video using two flip books at a time.
tips:
1. storyboard your idea on the 9 panel sheets. It's easier if you have a first panel in mind and a last panel. Then you can fill in the blanks. You should use at least 50 panels.
2. after you're done storyboarding, start drawing your first panel on the last sheet of the post its.
3. keep your drawing on the 1/2 of the post it that's further away from the sticky side
4. eventually these need to be inked.
5. backgrounds are optional.
6. keep characters simple enough that you won't mind drawing them over and over and over and over again.
Check this out for some flip book history!
