Trish’s Tip: “This format delivers a truly unexpected experience. The layout ‘travels’ along a path of six panels, so consider telling a story that entices the reader to follow along. The story can be told in images or short statements. Can the panels connect to create one larger image or illustration? Is there a common element that weaves through the panels?”
-Trish Witkowski, Foldfactory founder
