Comic projects revision and mentorship

Are you putting together a storyboard, draft or rough preview and need a second pair of eyes? Do you wonder how your project reads for an external reader? Want to make sure everything is in place before sending it? Then this service might come in handy!

After my time as a comic book teacher at Barreira Master’s Degree in Illustration, attending several professional juries and with more than 10 years of experience making comics, I can offer relevant observations and useful suggestions in this field.

Aspects of your project I can examine:

  • Reading order of the composition (panels, actions, bubbles…).
  • Narrative.
  • Coherence and understandability of the story.
  • Advanced text correction in Spanish / Basic text correction in English (I have a good English level but I’m not native).

After the revision, I can offer some further mentorship, with suggestions on:

  • Approaching the project and planning the guidelines.
  • Building a presentation for publishers or clients.
  • Publishing or self-publishing possibilities.
  • Advice based on my professional experience.

Testimonials

“When I had to develop my first comic, I asked Xulia to review my project with her expert vision and she was very helpful. She had great contributions and good suggestions, both for the graphic narrative and the text correction, in addition to helping me trust the process and building my self-confidence. I will certainly ask her for help again!” Marina Álvarez-Dardet, illustrator
