Every month in Comics and Cartoons, we are asking professionals to answer some questions asked by the aspiring comic artist or writer. Since there is never a single correct answer, several people are polled and their answers are compiled into one article, providing insight from different angles.
We challenge writers and artists to self publish new material for this week, and offer it to their local stores. We ask for retailers to take this as an opportunity to showcase local independent talent on the new release shelves. We encourage fans to break from their buying habits and try something new.
This is the official resource collection for the Comics and Cartoons Gallery. If you're just getting started or want quick resources, look for the symbol before an entry. These are resources that provide a good overview, while the rest go more in depth and into technical details.
Submit 1 to 3 comic pages sequencing an action scene. By this we mean the focus is on movement, as opposed to talk or scenery. It can mean a fight scene, dance, sports,... insert your favorite physical activity here! Some examples:
The main element the judges will consider is how you make or keep it visually exciting. For instance, an unchanging shot or camera angle will kill the energy of the scene, so you'd have to vary them while keeping the sequence legible. Comics use plenty of tricks to make such scenes exciting, look to your favorite authors and show us what you've got!
Look here for full details for submissions and prizes!

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.

We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
