Comic Clinic with Metaphrog

Leave a reply

As part of our Unmasked project we met up with our counterparts from Woodfarm and our experts Glasgow graphic artists Metaphrog.

The lecture theatre was awash with creativity as our groups moulded and developed their stories guided by our knowledgable guests.

Questions on storyboarding, drawing, setting scenes and creating effective dialogue were all answered with a flourish.

I am sorry to say that this is the last time we will be meeting with John and Sandra; AKA Metaphrog but they have promised to keep in touch and answer any questions we might have. In return I have promised them a copy of our finished work.

A great day and thanks to everyone who put in so much effort… keep up the great work and many thanks to the Scottish Book Trust for helping us fund this brilliant event.

New Term – New Stuff

This is not Malorie Blackman

I said AUTHOR!

2013-14 term has just begun and the library has lots in store for this exciting new academic year.

I would like to christen this year – the year of the authors. Already John DeLaney and Sophie McKenzie are set up for ER schools in the next 3 weeks- not to mention the wee sneaky trip to the International Book Festival in Edinburgh next week. Graphic artists Metaphrog will be popping in some time in Sept and a wee hush hush rumour hazzit that a certain Children’s Laureate might – just might- be heading in our direction. And this is just for starters – stay close to the library or at lest our web site to learn more. And remember you heard it here first…
