Michelle's Blog Post 5
In this comic strip titled It’s All About You, there is a man selling what looks like coffee at a bagel and coffee shop, and a customer. The customer is dissatisfied with the way that their life is going thus far, and the solution to the happiness? He wants to be rich and famous and having his own fragrance line. This ironic, because he states that he doesn’t want be bothered, and he is acting like he is bothered by the worker, but he wants to be rich and famous. Being rich and famous comes along with paparazzi and many boundaries-less fans, invading one’s space. This customer appears to value his space, which is ironic that he would want to put himself in a position where that would be taken away. There are no motion indicators in this strip; however the time and space in between them suggests that he is turning shrewdly away from the employee to give an overall dissatisfied vibe left behind, like he is better than the employee. In fact although this strip is titled It’s All About You, it is all about him. The only emotion that he shows is for himself, meaning he has self pity.
Francesca Blog Post 5 Time, Motion, Emotion
In this strip, Rerun is crying because he thinks that everybody is going to leave him home… in a kennel. You can see that the timing that is going on is over the period of minutes. From the panels, we can see that the characters are moving closer and farther away from the crying characters, and then they leave. There are no indicators that there is any motion going on, such as motion lines, but you can see very well that the crying character is swaying while crying, and that the other two characters are making an effort to move closer to him when he gets every upset. The emotion is here is shown by the crying marks that are coming from the crying character’s eyes. This shows that the emotion of the character is an upset emotion. The emotion of the other two characters is shown by the way they look and act around the crying character. They seem to be sincere and look as if they want to help. From the thought bubbles, this is correct.

This is a four panel comic in which Snoopy decides to attempt to play basketball, and his ball ends up into flying into the bird nest. I choose this comic because even without dialogue you can still see time, motion, and emotion. The timing in these comics is the same as if the event was unfolding before your eyes. Through motion lines you can see can see the movement of the ball in panel number two. In panel number three you can also see snoopy’s motion in the motion lines. You can covey the character s emotions with their expressions. Snoopy is apprehensive in the first panel and the bird is surprised when the ball hits his nest.
