Making A "Mystery" Motion Webtoon

I have been away from AF for 2 months. And it seems a lot has changed. I was supposed to put this in the Creative Corner but it doesn't fit there anymore. I guess that's why there's the AF Projects club.

So I guess I will have to blog about current and future projects. Anyways,

I am working on a new project. Basically, I want to make a motion comic. Or a comic book with some animation.  It's not really just images but it's also not fully animated. But instead of a Marvel / DC motion comic, it will be an Anime / webtoon motion comic. 

It will be a mystery story so if you're reading this and you enjoy mystery Anime, reach out to me! I could use the help.

I took inspiration from reading books like The Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew, and the Famous Five.

Here is the story synopsis:

Quote

The Hiroo Senior High School’s detective club is in trouble!! They are in danger of being disbanded for lack of club activity. For a detective club they don't really solve anything. Not because they're lazy or inept, but there just isn't anything to solve. That is until one day, when they find a mysterious notebook left behind by a student who supposedly transferred schools.

 

And here are the 4 main characters (club members):

Misao Takano. The sophomore leader of the detective club. She is a good and caring leader but sometimes can be impatient.

Nara Hiruma. A sophomore member. The best friend of Misao. She is creative, kind, and cunning.

Junichi Kai. The sole male senior member of the club. Junichi is constantly looking for action and adventure. He is also very frugal. Probably the most frugal person you will ever meet

Makiko Handa. A freshman member. She is very energetic but slow-witted.

So I would like to hear your thoughts and if you have any suggestions for the mystery they will actually solve?

Interesting idea. Don't know much about mystery stories though, only that some people get the ending first and then work backwards from there, but no idea if that is helpful? 😂

About the mystery, seems like the student who supposedly transferred did not really transfer, which means a) why did he or someone else want others to think that he had transferred? b) why didn't he actually transfer?

I'm think A). That it was only a cover up. The student was killed as part of a bigger mystery. That's about all I got. haha

I asked helped from @Keiko  I'm so grateful she was willing to help.
