"Hi welcome everybody my name is Lars Erik Robinson I'm with LarsEr Arts All Around Art-Tainment. I'm a freelance illustrator and today we are going to talk about how to do a cartoon strips. There's all different ways and there's different tricks for cartoon strips. You can buy strips that are already made out that has a light blue line that doesn't show up when you, when you go to print it, that has all the grids already there for you as far as...Like for example if this is the beginning of your cartoon strip, and here is your title, I'm going to call it Lars Mars Bars. That's my name, my name is Lars. And that's what my nickname, some people call me that. Why I put myself there for example, well Lars Mars Bars is a candy bar. So this is the title of it, this is the beginning. They write maybe about who it's by. Right there. And then we'll do like a little, there's the beginning of it. Like a little baby. And everything is all grid off, like I said you can have it all pre-penciled out like I started here. And you have all the lines pre-sketched out with the cartoon bubble and everything there. And then you can always repeat the same face again, just copy that put it over here. So if you can imagine that being the exact same thing and then he can be saying, Oh look at that crazy guy humm? Well it goes on and on but it gives you an idea of how you could do a cartoon strip. You basically come up with your different strips, and you pre-pencil it in before you do your ink lining work. Thank you so much for joining me, keep on cartooning."
