Cool, my first comic đ, childish composition but it's the first one so... The first panel is a situation I experienced, I almost landed on a chimney while paragliding, I'm just saying that to explain the bird's-eye view (it's not a chimney sweep coming to do his job).
You went beyond just composing; there are even real setups, linked together! So that's more than achieved and congratulations on your first time, it's very good đ
After putting it off for several evenings, I finally tackled this exercise. I donât know why I wasnât feeling it (itâs not that I have anything against the composition itself :)), and I think it will show in the final pieces. I tried to play with perspective and the distances and proximities of the subjects in relation to the viewer.
I kept it very (too) simple and perhaps too small, considering it was in my A5 sketchbook.
The ideas are there, but itâs actually quite difficult to fully understand and interpret everything, given that there are very few or no landscape elements. The trees and houses could be flying đ.
Itâs not necessarily easy to work with so few elements, but the main goal is to understand the purpose of composition in the illustration process. Youâll see that once you have an idea of what you want to draw, this step will immediately seem essential (at least, I hope so).
Yes, I wasnât sure whether I should provide more details or not. I also think that in the compositions I created, thereâs a lack of dynamism; they feel more like landscape compositions and perhaps not enough âcharacter stagingâ (sorry, I donât quite know how to describe what I mean). I might redo a few of them, adding some more details and exploring some new ideas (I donât think that would hurt anything :D).
What youâre saying is perfectly clear, and youâre absolutely right.
The goal isnât to go into too much detail, but rather to flesh out your basic idea by creating small scenarios with a few simple and simplified elements (house, tree, path, road, hill, etc.). This will already allow you to tell stories and clarify your narrative ideas in a simplified way.
You can then test out new things without hesitation â go for it! đ
Ce que tu dis est tout Ă fait clair et tu as absolument raison.
New exercise, new challenge, haha. I tried to do it as Greg explained in the course, which was really great. Like the others, but when I looked at the work of the other students, I felt like I was off-topic. I focused too much on the landscape, and as a result, each scene has a similar landscape. However, there are no characters in a specific situation, so I'm not really telling a story, and each sketch corresponds to a panel, with nothing connecting the different sketches to each other. I'm posting my work, and if I need to redo it, I'll do it as many times as necessary.
The goal of the game was to work on image composition by varying the viewpoints, and thatâs exactly what you did.
You varied the angles and the framing, and itâs clear that the point youâre trying to draw attention to is the house or houses in each of your thumbnails.
So, as far as Iâm concerned, itâs all good, good job!
Je trouve que tes exercices sont trĂšs bien au contraire ^^

You did a bunch :-)
And don't worry about the quality of the images. As long as we understand each other, that's fine by me! đđ
T'en as fait un paquet :-)
Et ne t'en fais pas pour la qualitĂ© des images. Tant qu'on se comprend, ça me va ! đđ

AprÚs l'avoir repoussé plusieurs soirs je me suis mis sur cet exercice, je sais pas pourquoi ça m'emballait pas (j'ai rien contre la compo hein :) ) et je crois que ça va se ressentir sur les compos, j'ai essayé de jouer avec la perspective et les éloignements rapprochements des sujets vis à vis du spectateur.
J'ai fait trĂšs (trop) simple et peut ĂȘtre trop petit vu que c'Ă©tait dans mon carnet de croquis A5.
A bientĂŽt.

C'est pas forcément évident de composer avec si peu d'éléments, mais le but est avant tout de comprendre l'utilité de la composition dans le processus d'une illustration. Tu verras que lors que tu auras toi une idée de ce que tu veux dessiner, cette étape va tout de suite te paraßtre indispensable (en tout les cas je l'espÚre).

Thank you for your feedback.

Merci pour ce retour,
oui je savais pas trop si il fallait dĂ©tailler ou pas puis je trouve que dans ces compos que j'ai fait lĂ y manque du dynamisme ça fait trĂšs compos de paysages et peut ĂȘtre pas assez "mise en situation de personnage" (dĂ©solĂ© je sais pas trop comment dĂ©crire ce que je veux dire), je vais peut ĂȘtre en refaire quelques unes du coup avec quelques dĂ©tails de plus et d'autres recherches d'idĂ©es (ça fera pas de mal je pense :D ).

Le but aprĂšs n'Ă©tant tout de mĂȘme pas de rentrer trop dans le dĂ©tail, mais dĂ©grossir ton idĂ©e de base en mettant en situation des petits perso, avec 2-3 Ă©lĂ©ments (maison, arbre, chemin, route, montage, etc.) simples et simplifiĂ©s permet dĂ©jĂ de raconter des choses et de mettre au clair, en vulgarisĂ©, ses idĂ©es de narrations.
Tu peux sans autre tester des nouvelles choses, lĂąche-toi đ

Apart from the first one, which has a very forced perspective, the others work very well. Itâs very narrative :)
A part la premiÚre qui a une perspective trÚs forcée, les autres fonctionnent trÚs bien. C'est trÚs narratif :)

Nouvel exercice nouveau challenge haha. Jâai essayĂ© de faire comme Greg nous explique dans le cours qui Ă©tait super dâailleur Comme les autres, mais en regardant les exos des autres Ă©lĂšve jâai lâimpression dâĂȘtre hors sujet. Je me suis trop concentrĂ©e sur le paysage et du coup pour chaque cas jâai un paysage qui se ressemble Ă chaque fois dâailleur, mais pas de personnage dans une situation particuliĂšre je raconte pas vraiment dâhistoire et chaque Ă©bauche correspond Ă une planche rien ne lie les diffĂ©rentes Ă©bauches les une aux autres. Je post mon travail et si faut refaire je referai autant de fois qui le faudra.

The goal of the game was to work on image composition by varying the viewpoints, and thatâs exactly what you did.
You varied the angles and the framing, and itâs clear that the point youâre trying to draw attention to is the house or houses in each of your thumbnails.
So, as far as Iâm concerned, itâs all good, good job!
Le but du jeu Ă©tait de bosser la composition d'image en variant les points de vue et c'est exactement ce que tu as fait.
Tu as varié les angles, les cadrages et on comprend bien que le point sur lequel tu cherches à attirer l'attention, c'est la ou les maison(s) dans chacune de tes vignettes.
Donc c'est tout bon pour moi, good job đ
