I have just learned more about visual arts in 15 minutes than I have in the previous 50 years. Thank-you.
The book is also excellent:
Understanding Comics: The Invisible Art
Amazing. Like Edward, I never really look at comics that way. I guess Scott really gives me another grand reason to read comics books :P
The other thing I never thought about was the window-visual-port. Perhaps I am late to the party, but this concept gives another aspect not just to monitors as suggested by Scott, but also the videos/movies displayed on the monitor.
Wonderful clip. Thanks for sharing it.
