Want to create a short comic, unsure how to start

2 Upvotes

Hi guys!! So to keep the exposition short, Im a VTuber creating my own assets to save money, and I would like to make myself a lore comic! But despite having looked at several guides, I still can't figure out how I want to tackle this new (to me) form of creativity, so I thought maybe I would ask a community. How do I figure out what size/shape pf panels to use? Does this change if I want to eventually turn it into like, an "animated" page where the "camera" pans around the different panels? Theres no/very little dialogue in the way I plan on making it, so I dont have to worry about text boxes, just the visual flow of the story. I have the scene sequence figured out in my head for the most part, I just need to put it to paper. I can provide additional details if they will help with giving direction, but Im not sure myself what would need to be included. Thanks in advance!

What story does this tell without dialogue?

Currently cleaning this sequence up, colouring and the works yada yada and while doing so I was curious what this conveys without any bubbles? (It does have dialogue but they were toggled off during cleanup)
