The graphic novelist Edward Ross came to the school to give a workshop to three S1 classes. Edward is the author and artist behind Filmish : a graphic journey through film and is passionate about comics. He discussed his work and gave pupils tips about creating comic book characters. Pupils then had the chance to design their own comic. The feedback we received following the visit was very positive. Here are some of the comments:
“it inspired me and I went home and did a bunch of artwork about my comic”
“super awesome”
“I love comics. It was amazing”
“I thought the visit was innovative, exciting, interesting”
