En bref

Une page de bande dessinée sur un sauvetage dans la tempête qui emploie toutes les sortes de bulles, avec la feuille de style d’un lettreur qui montre comment chacune s’écrit dans le script.

Ce que vous allez composer

La page 7 du Phare de Porthcove, une bande dessinée sur une nuit de tempête dans un phare, précédée de la feuille de style du lettreur. Un chalutier perd son moteur, le gardien le guide par radio, Maya attend avec le chat, et au matin le patron de pêche les remercie. La page emploie toutes les sortes de bulles que dessine Postext : parole, paroles jointes, pensée, murmure, cri, radio, récitatifs de narration, voix intérieure, note de l’éditeur, onomatopée, voix hors champ et bulle épinglée. Le format est celui d’un comic book américain, 168 × 259 mm, et la page existe en huit langues.

Préparation

#1 · Nommez la sorte de bulle dans la ligne du script

Le code est dans la réponse courte plus haut. Une ligne du script s’écrit speaker{kind}: text, et la sorte est l’id d’un style de bulle. Les neuf styles intégrés couvrent les sortes habituelles : un ovale à appendice courbe pour la parole, un nuage à bulles pour la pensée, un contour en tirets pour un murmure, une explosion à appendice en coin pour un cri, un contour en dents de scie à appendice en zigzag pour une voix qui passe par une radio (styles de bulle). Un style de la configuration portant le même id ne change que ce qu’il nomme : ici la couleur du trait, le jaune des récitatifs et les 16 pointes de l’explosion. caption, note et sfx sont des locuteurs réservés : des cartouches de narration calés dans un coin, la note de l’éditeur à 0,8 fois la taille, et des lettres de titrage sans bulle.

L’appel radio : un récitatif, la bulle radio du patron pointée vers le poste, la réponse du gardien et la note de l’éditeur.

#2 · Pointez chaque appendice vers un locuteur

Chaque image porte des ancres exprimées en fractions de l’image : la bouche que vise un appendice de parole, la tête que vise une pensée, le visage qu’aucune bulle ne doit couvrir (locuteurs et ancres). Le patron de pêche n’est jamais dessiné : son ancre dans l’image de la tempête est le poste de radio, dans l’image de la mer son bateau. Quand le locuteur n’est pas dans la case, tail=right (ou left, top, bottom) fait courir l’appendice jusqu’à ce bord, et at="44% 22%" épingle le centre d’une bulle à un point de l’image : elle y reste, quel que soit le recadrage. Deux lignes de suite d’un même locuteur se joignent en un seul contour avec un seul appendice. left et right sont des côtés de l’image : les huit éditions écrivent donc la même ligne pour le gardien dans la case de la mer, dont le phare se dresse à droite de l’image, tail=right, que la page se lise de gauche à droite ou de droite à gauche. start et end suivent au contraire le sens de lecture de la page.

#3 · Donnez à un personnage une voix bien à lui

La distribution de la réponse courte donne à chaque ligne skipper: le style radio : le script ne répète donc jamais {radio}. Une ligne peut toujours en décider autrement : dans la case du matin, le patron appelle depuis son bateau, skipper{speech tail=bottom}:, dans une bulle ordinaire dont l’appendice sort par le pied de la case.

#4 · Lettrez chaque édition dans ses propres caractères

L’italique et le gras s’appliquent là où le caractère les possède : la voix intérieure est en italique en français, en romain en japonais (lettrage).

Erreurs fréquentes

  • Une épingle est un point de l’image, conservé quel que soit le recadrage. Une onomatopée épinglée si près du bord qu’elle sortirait de la case (« KRA-BOUM » à at="16% 28%") est ramenée à l’intérieur : elle peut donc se trouver un peu à côté du point indiqué.
  • Une voix hors champ est lettrée près du bord vers lequel pointe son appendice : les remerciements du patron, tail=bottom, se placent au pied de la case du matin bien qu’ils soient la première ligne de la case. Pointez l’appendice vers le bord supérieur quand une telle ligne doit être lue en premier.
