What follows is a selection of roughs, and I mean some are pretty rough.
Hitchcock said "Shoot your murders like love scenes and your love scenes like murders" I am trying to come to terms with that and try and work out how to use this in my comics. I haven't came to any murders yet, or a love scene. But I am just about to work on a fight scene and I don't want it to be just another fight scene in a comic I want it to really draw the viewer in.
I have looked back at the movie Raging Bull and the way the fight scenes in that film where shot, in looking into this it really lets you see just how much thought and effort really went into shooting these fight scenes and this is what I want to work out in my fight scene, so here are some examples of the workings out.
many different view points, long shots and close ups, not all just connecting shots but reaction shots and some crouching shots. I decided that I didn't want any kicks as I want the character to be a boxing type fighter and not martial art, A rough style of fighting but powerful.
I need to decide on a style for this fight scene another thought is if you don't see any connecting shots at all, apart from possibly one big pay off at the end.
First panel with pencil, same basic idea but slightly changed and tweaked with anatomy worked out better.
next we have the pencil version of the first page for the fight scene, some tweaking again for the third panel and a new stance for the fourth panel. building the tension for the next page and the next hit.
Above the first pencil layout and the half inked page
Inked page, once I have discovered a way that I am happy with for inserting speech bubbles I will then decide if more background detail is needed.
