Author's Note: Humor Argument
When this assignment was given to us I was not real sure on how to complete it. First off, I am not an artist. Second, I don't know how to write a play or skit. After hearing that its not the art, but the idea that is graded. That's when I decided to make a short comic strip. I think the comic gets across the point I am trying to make without offending anyone or being off topic. Right now I feel I have a decent humor piece but it definitely needs to be re-drawn and maybe add some color.

Cameron,
ReplyDeleteI like how simple your piece is. It makes it funnier because the readers aren't having to figure out what is supposed to be funny. It is laid out nicely and is easy to follow. Maybe have a car picking up the guy in the last frame to more clearly depict what he is doing. Looks good, good luck!

I like your argument, especially your subject matter. I would emphasize the sign with the milage on it more because I was a bit confused by that. Overall though, good job! Your drawing skills are great (I'm jealous).
ReplyDeleteI really liked your humorous argument! It was a good idea and really funny. In the second picture with him walking out of the car you could put "one minute later" and then on the picture when he reaches the 25 miles sign put like "15 minutes later" so exaggerate how long it takes to make the walk.
ReplyDeleteGOOD DRAWING! Your argument was clearly demonstrated on your cartoon! I think its fine the way it is.... you put some effort into this one Cameron. YAY!
ReplyDeleteI liked your comic a lot because of its subtle humor and your approach to something that most TCU students have had a problem with. I think we can all see ourselves in the comic which is great!
ReplyDeleteI think you have a great argument here. I feel your pain when it comes to the parking at TCU. I can't tell you how many classes I missed because I couldn't find a parking spot and just gave up.. Anyway, I think you did a good job, and could just tidy up the drawing by doing it again on a different piece of paper, maybe add color?
ReplyDeleteI really like the comic and how it cuts the experience of having to hike to class from so far away into peices. It makes the distance seem far. You could maybe have one with hime looking out into the distance and seeing TCU (with a sign or something) super far away.
ReplyDeleteCameron, I think your humerous piece is really funny and easy to understand! even if the audience has not evr dealt with the issue of TCU parking, they are still able to understand the humor in the comic. Also, your art work is really good and detailed which makes the piece even better!
