Week 6: AI Comic Strip

This week I had the opportunity to use AI comic strip creator on ChatGPT and I have never used it before. I chose the topic of Tennis since I have played for a long time. I ask the question below:

 Make me a five-image animated comic strip about tennis. Only make the animated artwork in the pictures, type the words outside of the image, under the picture".

Panel 1:

(Image: A bright tennis court on a sunny day. Two characters, Kai (sporty, confident) and Lina (beginner, curious) stand on opposite sides of the net. Kai holds a racket and ball, smiling, while Lina looks unsure.)

Lina: "So… how do you even play tennis?"
Kai: "It’s easy! You just hit the ball over the net and keep it in play!"

Panel 2:

(Image: Close-up of Kai tossing the ball into the air, preparing to serve. He has a confident stance, while Lina watches wide-eyed. Motion lines emphasize the ball’s movement.)

Kai: "First, you serve! Toss the ball up and hit it diagonally into the other side of the court."
Lina: "Whoa… that looks kinda hard."

Panel 3:

(Image: Lina swings her racket wildly and barely manages to hit the ball. It wobbles over the net, and Kai easily returns it. Lina looks surprised.)

Lina: "Ahh! I hit it! But… barely."
Kai: "Nice! Now just keep the ball in play—this back-and-forth is called a rally!"

Panel 4:

(Image: The ball bounces out of bounds after Lina’s return. She groans, and Kai points to the court lines, explaining scoring. A small floating scoreboard shows "15-0.")

Lina: "Oops… out of bounds."
Kai: "No worries! Tennis scoring goes 15, 30, 40, then game. You gotta win by two!"
Lina: "Wait… why not 1, 2, 3??"

Panel 5:

(Image: Lina now looks determined, gripping her racket. Kai tosses her another ball to practice. The background has dramatic speed lines for excitement.)

Lina: "Okay, I think I got it! Let’s play for real!"
Kai: "That’s the spirit! Game, set, match!"
