CONSISTENCY IN STAGING
YOUR SCENE
Much of the action in this issue takes place
in a kitchen. It was important that the
layout of the kitchen was drawn up prior to
choreographing the action for the sake of
consistency and therefore believability. The
big window door the Stalker Dogs burst
through, the table Bloodshot and his wife
were sitting at, the refrigerator, the stove,
the door, the locations of the characters
etc were all kept consistent throughout.

VERTICAL VS HORIZONTAL
Vertical panels portray shorter passages
in time and tense moments; horizontal ones
stretch out for open, relaxed moments. This
page uses smaller vertical panels at the top to
illustrate a quick, tense exchange between a
villainous general and an insubordinate lackey.
At the bottom, two big, wide horizontal panels
are used to illustrate a relaxed scene of
Bloodshot and his wife in a meadow.
