Program Overview

The MA Digital Comics course will enable you to: 

  • explore the design skills needed to visualise engaging characters, worlds, panels and pages
  • develop your storytelling skills and examine the new possibilities for comics offered by digital display
  • investigate the commercial practices behind the publication of successful work
  • write and illustrate comics with a particular focus on digital distribution and consumption
  • study a modular structure that has produced professionals across the digital comics industry 
  • have the opportunity for unique collaboration with students on other pathways and work with animators, games artists, concept artists and digital comics illustrators. 

You will complete the course having created a range of comics for different formats, audiences and contexts. You will gain an in-depth understanding of the processes of writing, designing, illustrating, distributing and promoting digital comics as well as organise and manage professional workflows and create digital and traditional comic outcomes to a high standard. You will also learn how to communicate and articulate your practice within a wide range of networks. 

The specialist teaching approach will focus on exploiting the unique qualities of digital comics as well as developing a solid set of skills equally applicable to traditional print comic publication. The course will expose you to critical and media theories that you can connect to your emerging practice to grow your repertoire of skills and stand out in the marketplace, by creating new services or lead innovation in digital comic creation.
