Making Comics ▼ Writing Scripts & Chapters (EVERYTHING You Need To Know!)

"For those who hates writing. . . " Me: got hit with the invisible arrows

The beginning is EXACTLY why I haven't drawn any of my MANY comic ideas. My character's stories and settings aren't super complex or hard to draw, I just don't know how to plan!!!

I think even professional manga artists should watch this video.

Cardi B teaches me manga...cool

Lol, I wrote out a whole story arc. Then I divided it into volumes. Then into chapters. Then rewrote. Then drew names. (Rough draft drawings of chapters.) Redrew those. Then started. Great vid as always though. Lol 🤙🏽 Edit: Whoa, 700 likes? That’s wild!! Thank you guys 😭

I plan to write the WHOLE story first before actually drawing. I can't help but be cautious in case I get new ideas. Thank you for the tips!

I stayed up all night and wrote 15 chapters. Each chapter is estimating around 15-20 pages. I'm so excited to start printing it out and start storyboarding it! 😣😣😣😣

Me just draw a comic for fun then realizes it has so much potential and now I need to get serious and actually plan everything out before I go further in the story.

Can you go over different panel shapes and sizes plzzzz 😯😯😯

Can you please make a video about adding sound effects to the manga? I would very appreciate that

Some times I write my stories like movie scripts ex: 15 yr old boy: "I see you hiding over there" (no answer) 15 year old boy: "come out or I'm calling the guard." 8 year old girl: "ok, ok. I'm sorry. I just wanted a piece of bread for my little brother." then I'd go back in with details like Ken heard a noise outside and when he looked out his bedroom window, I notices one of the bushes in his yard moving. He quickly calls out the window but receives no answer. Ken thinks that it might have been a rabbit until he notices a little girls head peak up and quickly dive into another bush close by, slowly making her way through his garden. Curious, Ken runs down stairs to confront the little girl, only to find out she's a hungry orphan.

a few minutes in and i love her whole vibe and her personality!

I spent like 2 hours the other night with a recording app mapping my story out. I don't feel ao crazy for doing that anymore.

Hi, I just wanted to add that it’s important to make characters’ parameters before writing the script, or any of the events that take place in the story. I have trouble thinking about what goes on in each chapter, so I write out the timeline of important turning points before I write each individual chapter.

The BEST Video FoR Aspiring Manga Artists

I'm a writer and my advice to new writers is that making the story as you go will make the story more random and can become confusing. You want to DEFINITELY plan ahead, it makes the readers become more creative and immersed into the story because they try guessing what happens next, but that can't happen if you as the writer doesn't even know what happens next and it makes it more boring. So take your time while writing, I've been planning my story for 8 years now and I'm getting closer and closer to publishing it everyday. I've gone through a lot of trashing chapters, rewriting chapters, creating characters, trashing old characters, it's a long process but it'll be worth it because the amount of thought and planning put into it

Can you do a video explaining how you develop environments/backgrounds for your manga/comic? I’m starting a comic and I’ve been thinking after I’ve gotten my script done and as I’m starting the story board, I don’t know how to do backgrounds. Do I plan them on a separate page(s)? what about layouts to the characters house? Where do you look up your references/guilds for house/environment inspiration? I want to have these in check before starting the final product.

I found this after hopping through about 10 other recommended videos trying to find the most helpful one to my situation. This is where I stopped. So glad I found an awesome person to go along with the video :3

my angel, I needed that so much , thanks :DD
