NARRATIVE | Understanding Comics reading

Understanding Comics, pgs 60-73

In the reading it discussed the importance of interaction between the viewer and how the viewer creates closure. Closure is key for the viewer and has great significance when using time and motion. Which is important when creating a narrative. There are many different transitions that create closure to the viewer:

Moment to moment

aspect to aspect

scene to scene

subject to subject

action to action

aspect to aspect

non-sequitor

These transitions are used between scenes of the narratives. These transitions in the narration help the viewer understand the parts that aren't actually shown.
