What is graphic weight?

• The heaviness/intensity of a line or block of shading for focus. The darker/thicker the weight the more important the scene or element.

• The use of prior knowledge to “fill in the gutters” and innately create narrative sequencing in a series of panels.

• The panel or part of a panel that is closest to the viewer.

• Information bubbles or boxes that are generally separate from the rest of the panel or page. Often used to create a voice-over technique to the action in front of us. They are also spaces for soliloquies, personal thoughts, and, occasionally, dialogue.
