This story of this simple scene is me coming home from one of my classes planning on finishing a big assignment. Then when I get to my chair, instead of sitting down and finishing the assignment, I pull the chair over to play some video games. Scott McCloud talks about these idea of juxtaposed images in Understanding Comics. There are 6 main types of panel transitions according to McCloud. In this little story of mine, I have included two of those types. The types I chose were action to action and subject to subject. My action to action transitions, for example, is when I my backpack is on the bed right after showing my room. This along with my arm position give the reader the idea of me throwing my bag on the bed. My subject to subject transition is when I transition from grabbing my chair to take a seat and instead pull it over to my TV to play video games instead.
