    Page speed going from 1 page per day to 3 pages per day would literally make the difference between a 200 chapter manga in Shounen Jump taking 4 working years versus a little over 1 working year.

  • @sparkspark2314
    @sparkspark2314 8 месяцев назад +9

    This is good advice for anyone…including pros. If you want original art…use this method as preproduction they blow up those pages to final size and ink everything. If you draw in black ink digitally too, you’ll see more more clearly what you need to refine in the final real world original art. That will help your eyes/thinking process of what needs to be fixed/done. This is actually a great video for all aspiring comic book artist. Well done!!!

  • @furwerkstudio2057
    @furwerkstudio2057 4 месяца назад +3

    It is something I learned from the old pros on how to burn through pages because they had a hell of a deadline, it is how I wound up with 350+ page buffer with my webcomic.
    Also people don't want to hear this, but old pros use to have a day job or a part time job because comics didn't pay that much even back then.

  • @RobDrawsPictures
    @RobDrawsPictures 3 года назад +20

    Approaching it as a sequence instead of focusing on page count is really good advice.
    Personally, the way I like to approach it is, rather than commit to a specific page, I'll rough out an entire chapter then jump from page to page to work on the panels I'm really feeling that particular day. Sometimes that means I finish no pages in a day, completely, other days it means I'll bank up to 10.

    I can testify to what Trent is saying, I'm a big John Byrne fan who is famous for doing three pages a day, back in 94 I pushed myself to produce three pages of panel art, for the first few days the pages were basic, but over the next few weeks I began producing detailed final layouts, I managed up to two and a half fully detailed pages a day, they do say if you want to reach the moon you should aim for the stars.

    1:37-2:21 I take the same approach to writing. If I get stuck, I give myself a time limit to work through it. If I'm still stuck, I put that page aside and work on something else. I'll return to that problem area later, when I have a fresh perspective.
    My productivity increased quite a bit after trying that method, and I stopped feeling like I was wasting time on those pages where the problem's solution kept eluding me.

    Everytime I see a video of yours talking about being an artist in general I always think "men that's a lot of hard work I dont want to do...", but I must, and I'm starting to belive that I can do it. I dont know how to be a concept artist but I think that's what I want to do and I'll try hard to be one. I'm currently working as a comic artist and not sure if I want to be a concept artist or an ilustrator, but I'll figure it out and I'll do what is needed to have a healthy life being a professional artist

    Hey Trent. I just stumbled upon this video. And wow oh wow it's insightful. I am now going through your RUclips catalog and your Gumroad. Have you ever thought of taking the content from this video and making a Free Educational Email Course for folks to sample your comic book course from your Gumroad? You have a good outline right here in this video. I can see the free course prepping students to ready themselves for the one day to draw 3 pages and then by the end of it the choose a day and commit to it. You can do so much with this. Just a few thoughts.

    I turbocharged my speed as a storyboard artist. I can do 4 in one day blue line. I skip pencil and move straight to ink (all traditional) but since I am trying to do it myself I look at “Blueline” vs “This many pages” and don’t even count. I just draw. (yes I use storyboards to help myself know what to do ahead of time).

    i did this www.artstation.com/artwork/3dnAy2 in medibang(on ipad) and it took me a while. i dont have a set number of pages i want to achieve per day, but i try to think how to arrange the panels. so i guess the questions are: do you pre plan what you put in the panels and how do you do the panels and those bubbles and effects in photoshop(im still learning photoshop so im not familiar with that part yet).

    This is a similar workflow that is taught in 3D modelling:
    rough out your scene with simple geometry to get camera placement, then add one level of detail to the entire scene before you move on to the next level of detail.
    This way you don't waste time on something that you throw away because that scene isn't working with your story.
    Hollywood could really learn from this: make stories, don't just throw a bunch of scenes together and call it done.

  • @UltimatePerfection
    @UltimatePerfection 2 месяца назад

    Your art is great and I love that you can draw so fast. Unfortunately it's likely not achievable for me as I want my art to be in color and that, compounded with my undiagnosed lack of energy (I mean I know I have less energy than other people my age, but I don't know why) means that often a single panel of my manga takes several days (and my other stuff such as gamedev. youtube and my webcomic strip doesn't help either). Good thing I don't have any deadlines to worry about as I'm going self-publishing with that one.
