Hey weird question but how do you write a comic? Do you write a script for important events? Do you write what each character says? Do you write background info? Please help out a person who's trying to write theirs..
From the simplest perspective, you write exactly as much as you need and not any less. There are no hard rules about this, and tons of people do it tons of different ways. But here's an example of my own, if you need an idea of one method. I'll use my other webcomic, The Dog Star, under the assumption you're working on a traditional comic instead of one like PATFW. However, I use pretty much the same system of documentation for PATFW.
Here's an except from my "notes" document for TDS, which is where I write down things like my basic ideas, any backstories for characters, things I want to expand on, random ideas, etc.
I find it helpful to have a separate notes document from whatever "script" you're working off of, so you can keep them clean and easy to distinguish.
Here's an excerpt from my "script" document of part of the scene described above. For my comic, I write it as if it were a movie script, with dialogue against any necessary notes that will help me remember a specific emotion, choreogrophy, or scene-setting device.
Personally, I did all of my scripting before I started TDS, but I like to work from a really solid base before I begin something. I know plenty of people who only write dialogue, or write it as they go with only outlines of plans. This also doesn't mean that my script is set in stone; since I began TDS, I've added 40 pages worth of new dialogue and adapted almost all of what I had before. It's all up to you.
I've talked about writing tips before on this blog - check out the "advice" tag if you think you might need anything else.
im very upset i found something i want and i CANT BUY IT (as USUAL UGH)
sensible side character attempts to slap sense into sopping wet, pathetic main cast
What did Finch do and what would night do if she found out what Finch did?
YEEAGHH thatβs what the finch pmv covers!
Finch killed four Alpine cats (including an apprentice) a few weeks after the civil war ended :] she did this deliberately because she knew she'd be banished to the dark forest with Night because of it (I think at this point she believed silverpelt did exist) and she was pretty distressed that Night was there alone.
Night probably already knows deep down that Finch wasnt just banished to the dark forest for no reason, and whatever she did was probably because of her (Night might ignore it but itβs hard to not notice how much Finch would just do basically anything for her lol).
I honestly have no idea how Night would react to being told outright lol.. Night and Finch share the trait of ignoring things until it comes back to bite them later
this one also ohgh my god
SCREAMING oh my god Night from 2020
