Toondoo is a comic maker. It has a huge variety of pictures, backgrounds, and people that can be used to make your comic. It was very easy to make my comic on Toondoo, However, it was slightly difficult to figre out how to save it. Offering a tutorial or "how to" section would be appreciated on this site.
Pixton is a great comic maker. It offers a "how to" video, however the comic was so easy to make you did not need it. Pixton offers several choices in characters and backgrounds. My favorite part is how you can manipulate the characters. You can basically build your own person, from the facial expressions to what they are wearing. Students would love working with Pixton!

And then there is Make Beliefs Comics. We did not get along. It was very hard and confusing to make my comic here. Then I find out the comic does not save, so I had to start over. Finally, it took a very long time trying to embed it on my blog, which as you can see, I could not figure out. I did not like this website, and I will not use it again, especially when Pixton is so much easier to use.

In the future I would love to use Pixton in my classroom and library. The students would have so much fun making their own comics. They could write stories and then make comics to go with them. I think it would be interesting for each student to make a different panel and then put them together to make one long comic strip.

I love your Pixton comic strip! She's so hopeful just like everyone is at the end of the year.
ReplyDeleteWow. That is so interesting. I found Pixton more difficult to use. Too many options for me.
