Yes, I know Genejoke already has one of these going. :)
We decided to set this new jam rolling before the last one is finished so that any artists who've already done their pages for the other one, or who are waiting for their turn over there and would like to get started on this one can do so. (New artists are welcome also, of course!).
HOW THE COMIC JAM WORKS
A comic jam is a process where artists collaborate on creating a single comic. There is no script, and the content of the comics is improvised based solely on what happened in the previous pages.
One artist creates the first page, then another artist creates the second, and a third does the next, and so on. (If one artist wants to do multiple pages, that's awesome - they just won't be consecutive ones 'cos that kind of defeats the point of the improv. :).
This comic jam will be 12 (EDIT: now 11 (EDIT: Now 10)) pages long.
Same basic rules apply as the last one:
- There are no restrictions on style or medium: drawing, photos, 3D, LEGO… go nuts!
- Each page needs to end on a question or cliffhanger so the next artist has something to 'bounce off'. (Except the final page, of course).
- No pre-existing characters from outside the comic jam (characters from other comics, etc.) This is so each artist can feel free to do whatever they want with the characters in their comic jam pages. You absolutely can and should use the original characters that other artists introduce in their own pages of this comic jam.
- Comic rating is Mature, nothing that would take it to Adult, please.
THEME
Like last time it will be up to the first artist to create the initial concept of the comic jam. But to keep things interesting, this time we have an additional theme.
The theme is: Blue.
What does that mean? How should you incorporate that into your page? That's totally up to you! There's no restrictions, and no requirement to use it the same way as previous pages either - the goal is just to work it into your page somehow.
