Proposal

 For my final major project, I wanted to create a series of comics that had an exaggerated and over the top style to make the stories and my characters within the stories appear humorous to the reader. For my research experiment project, I have decided to compliment the aims of my final major project by investigating and delving into the aspect of facial expressions through exaggeration. I will not only look into how artists incorporate this into their work, but I will also look into how people gauge reactions and feelings from an early age. I will look into different artists who portray this method in different media such as comic books, animation, photography and surrealism. I will also talk about how the artists are are able to make it seem believable to the reader or the viewer, without making them question why they are doing it and making it seem silly and unnecessary.
