I love this graph idea and the drawings are great, but if you’re going to make an example of good improv why not use dialogue that works for more than story? Here you are 4 lines in and we know nothing about the relationship, we’ve introduced a 3rd character and now have to change locations! Something like this builds story AND relationship:
Awesome camera!
I’m taking pictures of all my Heroes. ( takes photo of partner)
thanks! Uh, you’re… my… um… hero too. (begins nervously pouring drinks)
Boy, that didn’t sound sincere. Thanks for nothing. (slams drink down, spilling it)

Now we’ve got story, physical actions and relationships started. Not to mention an emotional reaction.

Thanks Michael,
I must say that creating examples is the hardest part of making these. It’s tricky to find something that doesn’t just express what I want to say, but expresses it visually.

Hi!
I’ve been blogging about improv for six years. Only now I came across your great blog.
For my latest posting I used one of your cartoons, referring to your blog. I hope that’s alright. If not, I’ll remove the cartoon immediately.
