It is evident that you guys put a lot of effort and thought into making this photo comic. I however feel that you guys did not clearly articulate through the comic a social meaning that all students (more particularly first years) would be able to relate to.
Ideally then I would have liked it if you had used Todorov’s theses of equilibrium/disequilibrium and renewal of equilibrium in the photo comic. It would have made more sense if you had showed the position of a person before he/she actually embarks on the self destructive trail to “damaging [her] reputation”. Also it would have been more beneficial to show the villain that actually causes the person [princess] to go astray, and how she can after committing any of the eight acts can restore some sense of normalcy (equilibrium) back into her life.
One can see that your comic does have a message that you wanted to relay and put a lot of hard work and effort into the making of the comic strip. However, your comic strip was too short. Your comic strip evidently also lacked relevance to the narrative and genre styles of Torodov and to the Dramatis Personae Categories of Propp.
There was no clear story line. You did not follow Todorov’s style of starting in a state of equilibrium which is followed by a disruption and then an attempt to restore the disruption and return to a state of equilibrium. Your comic was more like a list of disruptions with no visible equilibrium before and after and no attempt to restore the equilibrium.
Your comic, however pertinent the message was, lacked examples of Proppian characters. One can maybe make out a princess or a villain? However it was particularly difficult to distinguish a clear Proppian character structure.
