Key Note from Dr. Julia Round, Bournemouth University: ‘Anonymous 
Authors, Invisible Illustrators, and Collaborative Creation: Misty and 
British Girls’ Comics’


The First USW Cardiff: Comics Symposium is interested in creator’s 
perspectives. It will explore comics and creativity and papers are 
invited which examine the practice of creating comics, and the 
particulars of storytelling in comics.
Does changing a panel, change the story? How might a medium’s 
materiality affect its construction and reception? Pudovkin stated that 
“In order to write a scenario suitable for filming, one must know the 
methods by which the spectator can be influenced from the screen.” 
(Pudovkin, 1949, p. 1), and referring to adaption Weaver suggests this 
is, “the act of translating a story from one medium to another. To do 
so, you must be cognizant of the needs and storytelling techniques of 
each medium.” (Weaver 2012: 83. Added emphasis). Papers are invited to 
discuss:
Storytelling through comics
Creating comics
Comic form and Comics content
Scriptwriting for comics
Words to Image
Words and Pictures
Analogue and digital forms
Comics and Transmedia
Practice as Research
Teaching through Comics
Pedagogy and Comics

N.B. DEADLINE EXTENSION:

abstracts of 300 words to (cardiffcomicssymposium2018 /at/ southwales.ac.uk) by
