Redridden

Redridden is a graphic storytelling assignment centered on the production of a short narrative comic, developed through processes of illustration with traditional penciling, inking, editing and lettering.

The story details a hero, Red in her quest to search for and rescue her werewolf companion, Nana from a vicious hunter, set in the post-apocalyptic ruins of Seattle. The short story deals with the themes of change and survival, and is an adaptation of the classic Grimm tale, the Little Red Riding Hood. The 8-page comic is hand-drawn and inked on paper by myself, and presented purely in red, black and white with additional digital refinement.

The project serves to educate me in the processes of learning the developmental aspects in the craft of comic book drawing, writing and publishing, and was an important foundational work and proof of concept for doing a graphic novel for my Final Year Project.
