ABSTRACT
Comic Engine is an interactive comic creation system that uses a unique Attention Cuing technique. Our system focuses on both comic creation and comic browsing. To enhance both functions, we use a unique Attention Cuing technique, which is a kind of comic grammar, and is used to control the reader's viewpoint by professional comic creators. This technique is common for comic creators; therefore, we integrated it with comic creation to create more practical comic books. Both functions based on Attention Cuing are simple. However, users can depict a wide variety of comic content using simple interactions of the graphical user interface. We describe a prototype of the Comic Engine system, focusing on the design features and efficiencies.
