ComicMaster


ComicMaster
     I rated ComicMaster in four distinctive categories. In simplicity, I rated it a three out of five. This is because, all things considered, it wasn't the easiest thing to do. Though, most of the things are provided for you in the website, earning it more points than it would initially. One of the things I checked for was how hard it may be for someone else to put everything together. In my opinion the hardest part would actually be having to figure out exactly what I would need to write in the comic. Also, this tool was rated by what I thought was how intresting or eye-catching it would be to others.
     The next category was color. In this section I gave a rating of five out of five. The reason it got the highest rating possible is because everything used was already colored in. This would be helpful so to not waste time trying to color in things like the background or characters. The color of all the things is very bright and appropriate. There are no bland scenes with no color. The only problem that I have with that, is that I wouldn't even be able to choose what colors I would want things to be.
     Characters is the third part in rating this tool called ComicMaster. I rated it a two out of five. This is because there are already set characters you can use. Thanks to the provided characters, you won't need to sit around trying to figure out what characters you're going to draw, or what they're going to look like, and so on and so forth. This helps you save lots of time as well as making it look more professional than stick figures. The downside to this would be that you would have a limited range of characters and their facial expressions as well as deciding what they look like. For me, that is kind of a big limitation because I wouldn't want to make something with characters I don't really like.
     The final category is backgrounds. I gave this a rating of three out of five. Just like the characters, in ComicMaster the backgrounds are provided. There is a few choices of backgrounds you can make if you are doing a comic strip using this tool. Because of this you won't waste time deciding where your comic is taking place. Like the characters though, your choices become very limited and you are stuck with the couple of backgrounds that are given to you as choices. As a total, ComicMaster received thirteen of the twenty possible points.
