HOW TO GET INSPIRATION FROM POPEYE COMIC STRIPS.

Описание: IN THIS EPISODE: Here are four books about comic strips so you cans where Popeye came from, and other strips you can get inspiration from. Old comic strips are great for looking at and studying different styles of drawing and writing to get you started on your own comic strip or short film. Notice how Popeye looks like the animated version from the Fleischer Studio, but with modifications to make him work for animation. Anyway, this video is to introduce you to the history of the American newspaper comic strips.
I’ve always had an interest in comic strips and comic book histories. I think you can look through some old books like these, or websites with the same information, and see what came before you. It’s a great trip with Peabody and Sherman in the Wayback Machine.
