In class today we read Understanding Comics by Scott Mccloud, a graphic novelist. Pacifically we only read chapter 7 "The Six Steps" and I loved it. (fun fact reading has never been my strong point but I do love to read comics.) The Six steps are Mcclouds creative processes which goes, Idea/Purpose, Form, Idiom ,Structure, Craft, and Surface. I found his creative processes very helpful. If I had to place myself in a position myself I would most likely be in step 3 ,Idiom; "The "School" of art, The vocabulary of styles or gestures or subject matter the genre that the work belongs to... maybe a genre of its own" - Scott Mccloud.
