This 3-hour lecture based on the instructor's book "Framed Ink" (focusing mainly on storyboard and graphic novel) starts off with a general view on the art of visual narrative. Perception of facts in different ways, depending on light and other circumstances will be addressed. Representation of reality will be discussed, showing the many different narrative possibilities.

There will be an analysis of how, based on these principles, we can compose meaningful shots both steady or with a moving camera, all of it while showing slides that refer to each specific case.

Attendants will be able to interact with the lecturer and ask questions referred to the subject at any time, having a special section at the end for Q&A only.
