There's been lots of books about this lately -- formal styleguides, examples of scripts. Bendis's script for Powers is published. Ask your local comic retailer. There seem to be lots of different ways of doing it, unlike screenwriting which is very formal.
In the very broad strokes: One page of the script is one page of the comic. Instead of writing the dialogue out, just number the balloons. Example:
Panel One: Birdseye view of a college campus in the middle of the night. The dorms are on the upper left, a modern sculpture in the center, and a security car is cruising the walkway down the right-hand side. A strong wind blows from upper right to lower left.
1.
2.
Panel Two: &c.
And then you have a separate sheet with all the dialogue and captions, like this:
Page 1, panel 1:
1. CAP: State University, midnight. The wind howls...
2: SFX: Wooosh
And so on. But there's a lot of variation. |
