Here's a thought for those of you still considering this assignment. Have a ponder about the difference between a storyboard and a sequence. I would say that a lot of the submissions above portray clear sequences but not a particularly interesting story. Three panels isn't a lot to play with but it can be done (I think the one we picked as our winner for the weekly contest did so really well).

If you submitted a piece, have a look back and do some self-critique. Do you think you managed to hint at a story or just a sequence of events? Also, if you want some inspiration, have a look at newspaper strip cartoons. Many of those have a three panel format but display brilliant story telling.
