Side note: when I was briefly flirting with drawing and comics a while back, one exercise I did was to edit a favorite movie (Star Wars for me) down to a series of 12 panels. Might have been 16 or something, but relatively small. It was useful for thinking about comics, but it was also INCREDIBLY useful for helping think about the right moments to focus on in fiction, esp. short fiction.
