DISTRIBUTION FOR INDIE COMIC CREATORS
Tuesday, Nov 24, 6:30-8PM EST on Zoom
Distribution is one of the toughest parts of self-publishing your comics. There's no easy way to get your comics out into the world, and it's probably not your favorite aspect of making comics. There are people and methods that can help with distribution! Neil Brideau from Radiator Comics will talk about how they distribute comics, helpful tips for you to get your comics into readers’ hands, and why you should be interested in distribution!
Presenter ~ Neil Brideau is a self-publishing cartoonist who runs Radiator Comics, a distributor of small press and self-published comics. Since 2020, Radiator Comics has partnered with MICE to offer distribution to the winning MICE Mini-Grant titles!
SCHOOL AND LIBRARY VISITS FOR COMIC CREATORS
Tuesday, Dec 1, 6:30-8PM EST on Zoom
Working as a cartoonist often necessitates wearing a variety of hats. One of the things that's been very pivotal with effectively connecting to audiences, especially younger ones, are both school and library visits for art talks, workshops, or both! But what does the process of taking these on look like? And how do you connect to different ones that are available? Join LJ-Baptiste (who's done comic workshops for Google, Hasbro, PBS Kids, and more) in a webinar aimed to answer these questions and more!
Presenter ~ LJ-Baptiste is a cartoonist and arts educator who has worked with Google, Hasbro, PBS Kids, and the ICA among other organizations.
