Strips Bij Voorbeeld (Comics By Example)

until August 30 2020

For the third year in a row, professional comics makers guided students in the Comic Strip Academy. This unique comic training program is an initiative of Comic Book Guide, LUCA Cartoon and Graphic Storytelling Brussels and the City Academy of Fine Arts in Turnhout. The five teachers at Stripgids Academie based their lessons on their own professional practice: not theory, but the real life of a comic book author. Seven students followed the examples of their teachers and gave their own unique interpretation.

Traditionally, the waving students show the results of ten intensive lessons and five demanding assignments. This year they are doing this for the first time in the National Museum of the Playing Card.
