lmst340-In Class One "Rooster"

In this first slide, we can see a man slumped up by the stairs, presumably injured, while a woman in a black dress does some sort of pose in the foreground, maybe having hurt the man?

In the next slide, we see a giant, almost anthropomorphized chicken or rooster looking over a woman that is lying on a cot.

The third slide shows two anthropomorphized rooster/chicken
standing over what seems to be a grave, with a woman in it.

The fourth slide seems similar to the third, two anthropomorphized rooster/chicken are shown nealing over a woman in a chamber

The Fifth, the rooster man is leaving a room where there is a dead body

The Sixth, two women dancing while the rooster man sneaks thru a secret door

The Seventh, roosters-man eating inside a tent, while two women look on in disgust

The Last, Scary looking rooster-man seems to hunt two young ladies thru a hall.

lmst340-Assignment Three "Little Nemo"

"Little Nemo in Slumberland" by Winsor McCay is a collection of weekly comic strips that follow the character it is named after throughout different fantastical adventures. One of the first things I noticed while reading these comic strips, was the way in which images and panels were used to enhance the story. I liked how in most comic the very first panel was used as a title. This way, the story is introduced with a long panel, which sets as in a place and time, with an image,  and also uses type, which creates a cinematic feeling to it.  The second thing that stood out to me is that at the end of every episode, Little Nemo wakes back to reality. McCay uses the same frame of the kid falling out of bed and waking up every single time. That is why I think it is very interesting to see all these comic strips one next to each other because it shows how the author thought about the great variety of things a child can imagine. Every comic has a different plot, location, and ch...

lmst340-Assignment Two "Understanding Comics"

When reading the book "Understanding Comics" by Scott McCloud several things that stood out to me that were very interesting. The first is the use of space on each page, how he uses different sized panels to emphasize another panel or the use of breaking the character away from the panel, similarly in page 9 where the character's arm breaks the space and moves from one panel to another. However, as I mentioned in class another thing that stood out to me was when he started talking about how faces in comics are just symbols and the simpler the face the easier it is to projects oneself into the character. This is something that is taught in phycology classes when learning about the human psyche, where humans have a natural instinct to project oneself onto others as well as inanimate objects, that is why we are able to recognize faces so easily even when there is no face actually present. On page 64 there is a panel that I found very interesting and it is the one that ta...

lmst340-Assignment Thirteen "Superheros"

For this assigned reading I read Neonomicon by Alan Moore. The story started off in the middle of two FBI agents going to interview a psychopath, they are looking into a copycat killer that is copying the man they are interviewing. After this, they go to a club to bust their suspect. He ends up getting away, then they go to his apartment, where they find his mother dead. (I'm not going to summarize the whole thing), I really enjoyed the art style of this graphic novel, it was clear and crisp, it was also detailed but not in a super realistic way. The story of this graphic novel really takes some twists and turns through the whole thing. The one scene in particular that stuck out to me was when the two FBI agents went to investigate the sex cult dungeon and one of them ended up getting shot and the other got raped. This stuck out to me because it was so unexpected, I didn't realize this graphic novel was so gritty. During this scene I had to stop reading for a little bit and c...
