Tom Hart and Georgia Webber want to help comics creators by helping the people around them understand what they do. This first of four episodes is very informal, Tom and Georgia gathering their thoughts. Think of it as listening in as two professionals meet to try to improve their industry.
In this wide-ranging talk, we talk about the Canadian grant system (they have grants there!) and jury assessment tools
We get into teaching visual literacy in comics editing and fair compensation for artists and then a little bit about audiences and impact and a digression into Graphic Medicine.
Free-ranging. Come join in!
Here are some images from Georgia’s comic BARCODE, made in conjunction with a Duke University project for medicine students. We discuss that later in the show.
Other topics, according to the Zoom Bots:
Canada's Artist Grant Evaluation Criteria
Improving Comics Grant Assessment
Comics Creation Process Understanding
Challenges in Comics Editing
Understanding Health Through Cultural Lenses
Comic Creation and Medical Collaboration
Graphic Medicine and Comics Review
Fair Artist Compensation in Grants
