We analyze the technical standards of professional comic book scripting through the introduction of a free, Creative Commons 4.0 script template. This session evaluates the formatting requirements that bridge the gap between a writer’s vision and the production needs of artists, letterers, and editors. Utilizing a sample script, we break down the mechanics of sluglines, panel descriptions, and dialogue indentation. The discussion emphasizes a “Visual First” storytelling philosophy, technical production shortcuts for letterers, and structural planning.
