\nNORDEAST COMICS SUMMIT<\/b>
\nSummary: Adrean Clark<\/a> gave a lively presentation on the subject of human facial cues & gestures that, if used wisely, can make or break a comic. Best tip: Stay away from the “Uncanny Valley” — that zone inhabited by realistically rendered humans who are just slightly off enough to be creepy — unless, of course, you’re drawing a villain or a zombie.<\/p>\n

Coming up next!:
\nNOV. 3: Maxeem Konrardy<\/b>, “Theft & Borrowing in Comics” – and the idea of how do you write something new in a world where everything’s already been written.
\nNOV. 5 & 6: The Nordeast Comics Summit at MIX!<\/b> Spend some time with watercolor guru Sarah Glidden<\/a> and digital maestro Gordon McAlpin<\/a> as they demonstrate their unique artistic processes. Both events are at 1pm, see MIX program page<\/a> for full details.
\nDEC. 1: Steven Stwalley & Kevin Cannon<\/b>, “First Annual Holiday Comix Game Show!” – Jeopardy-style quiz show with comics-themed trivia. THERE WILL BE PRIZES!<\/p>\n
