Last Updated on: 29th February 2024, 09:28 pm

The visual tool used to represent the characters’ speech, dialogue, or conversation in the comics is known as a “bubble”. The meaning of speech bubbles in comics will be addressed, emphasizing their proper use and comic grammar.

One of the most important parts of comics is the character dialogue. It is one of the  features of comics  and it is as valuable as the images themselves. They are a great support for the narrative within the comics.

As part of the visual language of comics, bubbles are small expressions in themselves, with their own meaning. They can communicate in a situation or context. Therefore, it is important to know the meaning of speech bubbles in comics to know how to express emotions in a dialogue, nature, the source of the speech, and sounds, for instance.

Certainly, speech bubbles are usually added after the editing and photography of the images. However, at this point in  the process of making a comic , you must have the text included inside the bubbles. The extension of the text has to be set during the scriptwriting process, as well as the type of bubble to be used. Therefore, knowing the meaning of speech bubbles in comics ensures a better choice of each one to correctly communicate the message you want to convey.

Creative Process of Making Comics

There are different kinds of speech bubbles because there are different ways that a character could dialogue or communicate a message in a comic. There are some examples:

Meaning of Speech Bubbles in Comics: Normal Speech

The “basic” bubble — which often has an oval shape — is used for normal character speech. The “tail” of the bubble should generally point towards the speaker, particularly towards his mouth or the area that produces the sound.

Vertical bubbles can be used when there is not enough horizontal space.  Therefore, this provides flexibility in distributing the bubbles within the panel.

Most of the time, this kind of bubble has an oval shape. However, it can have different shapes.

To express a thought, an idea, or that one is daydreaming, the bubble with a cloud shape is the right one. Besides, the shape can also be oval, like the basic one. But its tail is formed by a group of circles, or ellipses. For example, there are 2 or 3 circles.

Besides, this bubble serves to communicate what animals, plants, or things cannot say, as they “do not talk”. For example, the meow of a cat or the bark of a dog could be represented by onomatopoeias. However, to express their internal dialogue, you can use the cloud bubble.

Rectangular bubbles without a tail are known as captions. They express what the narrator says in such a way that they support the course of the story. In other words, this space describes, in words, a given situation that would not be attributed to a character. Sometimes they are appreciated as voice-overs. Likewise, they are used for subtitles.

Multi-edged bubbles usually represent screaming or a message out loud, but the screams may have a positive or negative connotation. For example, the character is urging his team to try harder. However, the same bubble can be used to insult or express abuse.

Depending on the connotation of the message, either negative or positive, the text in its content may have variations in style: bold, larger, or different colors, for instance.

On the other hand, this bubble can also vary in shape, depending on the intensity of the emotion to be expressed and the style of the comics.

This is used to represent words or sounds coming from an electronic device such as a television, telephone, radio, or microphone. The tail of the bubble points towards the device, and it looks like lightning. In addition, it can be used for robot and hologram dialogs.

Whispers are presented with a dashed-lined bubble. However, it also represents saying a secret or speaking in a very low voice. Certainly, the shapes can also vary for greater flexibility.

The wavy bubble indicates that the speaker is suffering from physical weakness. Likewise, it indicates that a character is exhausted, semi-unconscious, or about to faint. So, its wavy shape reflects the weakness of the character’s voice.

  • If the speech or dialogue is too long or a pause is required, the text is distributed into extended speech bubbles.

Moreover, the extended speech bubble has variations. Dialogues can be interleaving but use a bridge that links the speech bubbles of the same character.

Meaning of Speech Bubbles in Comics: Extended Speech Variation

  • Speech bubbles represent the characters’ dialogue or thoughts.
  • Normal speech is often represented by an oval-shaped bubble.
  • To express a thought or an idea, the bubble with a cloud shape is the right one.
  • Rectangular bubbles without a tail are known as captions.
  • Multi-edged bubbles usually represent screaming or sending a message out loud.
  • The bubble whose tail looks like a flash of lightning is used to represent words or sounds coming from an electronic device.
  • Whispers are presented with a dashed-lined bubble.
  • The wavy bubble indicates that the speaker is suffering from physical weakness.

Comics are not just a piece of entertainment for children and teenagers. This massive medium is appreciated and understood by adults as well. Marketing agencies and advertising companies have understood this and have started to use it to attract potential customers.

In conclusion, the narrative power of comics can be exploited in graphic design to communicate ideas interestingly and differently. Learning the meaning of speech bubbles in comics is one of the first steps. If graphic designers want to take advantage of the full potential of comics, it is necessary to understand the concepts and features of comics and their different genres. It is also necessary to follow the process of creating a comic in order to develop a story through this format.

Introduction: Bubble Talk: Turn Your Speech Into Bubbles!

Bubble Talk: Turn Your Speech Into Bubbles!

”quod, ut dicitur, si est homo bulla, eo magis senex
(for if, as they say, man is a bubble, all the more so is an old man) ”
- Marcus Terentius Varro (116 BC - 27 BC), De Re Rustica

A soap bubble is ephemeral. It lasts only for a brief moment and quickly disappears even by a light breeze. The bubble's symbolic meaning as a metaphor of human's fragile and insubstantial life was first coined by a Roman writer Varro in the 1st century BC. Also, in 1572 the philosopher Erasmus reintroduced the Latin expression ''Homo bulla'' (''man is a bubble'') in his collection of proverbs, Adagia . This special characteristics of bubble attracted lots of artists in 17th century and also other periods. A paint, ' Cupid Blowing a Soap Bubble (1634) ', by Rembrandt Harmensz van Rijn is one of examples. Metaphor of bubble continues to the modern century and a modern artist, Thomb Kubli , also uses bubbles as a media to transfer invisible and intangible sounds to visible but fleeting form in a 3D space.

The attractiveness of bubble might be coming from its ironical representation of our transient life which reminds us of the value of our existence at a moment and makes us seize the present .

Step 1: Inspiration

Inspiration

A word and shape of 'bubble' were used as a graphic convention describing a imaginary form of speech and thought of characters in comic books. Inspired from those metaphors of bubble, I introduce an interactive art/ toy project representing the ephemeral and intangible properties of human's communication.

Once speech is shouted out from a speaker, the sound of speech never lasts and it lost its meaning unless there is a listener. Even if the speech is heard by someone, the message will be forgotten as time goes. The shapeless, intangible, and invisible speech is transformed into a semi-tangible yet still insubstantial form of visible bubble. To present this art concept, I created a bubble machine that provides person-to-person and person-to-space interaction.

The machine has a iris mechanism that varies its outlet size reacting to your speech pattern as if it tries to speak something. Once the participant pauses, a fan inside of the machine generates airflow toward a bubble membrane created on the iris outlet and transforms it to various sizes of bubble.

The floating bubble represents the subtle state of a message from interpersonal communications that lies in the middle of real and digital world. Also, it creates a few seconds of delay until it explodes, through which we like to say that it is never possible to have a real-time synchronized communication between two people even in a same space due to the limit of human perceptions.

I'd like to invite all of you guys to be an artist through playful interactions with the 'Bubble Talk' machine! :D

  • Iris Mechanism

Inspired by the amazing great work The CNC Bubble Iris by Gordon Kirkwood , this project introduces the way to build a bubble iris machine in smaller and mobile size using 3D printer and Laser cutter, and shows you to make it interactive to your speech to have fun!

As Gordon Kirkwood well explained in his instructables post, the core mechanism of the machine is iris using strings.

Step 2: Materials You Need

Here is the link for the materials I used to build a iris bubble machine.

Material List

I used to a laser cutter to cut the acrylic sheet and a 3D printer to print some components (bearing mounts, servo mount, pulley etc.) For the outer structure components, I used Form2 with Clear V4 material.

Step 3: Schematics and 3D Files

Schematics and 3D Files

Here are the STL files for 3D printing parts, and PDF file for laser cutting part.

  • STL Files for 3D Printing

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1EcchA65buvjBsyPmMD-R2n_9MbgLdhrV?usp=sharing

Quantity for each part is stated at the end of the file name. (e.x. Servomount_1EA.STL)

  • 2D Schematics for Laser Cutting

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1do6HraR7O8gMoUk7EMBF5PTJL62ruPnI?usp=sharing

  • PCBs: DC Motor Driver, Microphone amplifier.

At the time I was building this project, in my lab I didn't have a microphone amplifying board and DC Motor driver but an Electret Microphone , several electronic components, so I designed a simple board and milled using CNC machine (Roland Modela MDX20 CNC Mill) with copper board

In case you want to mill your own boards, here I also attached the EAGLE schematics and image file for CNC route. Or you can just use the product from Adafruit or any other provider.

Attachments

Step 4: fabrication.

Fabrication

  • 3D Printing and Laser Cutting

To meet the purpose of an art toolkit for everyone, I tried to use easily accessible material and fabrication equipment. I laser-cut a acrylic sheet to create a structure of the Bubble Talk machine as shown on figures above. Other parts that requires strength and certain 3D shapes are 3D printed using a customer level filament-fused (Sindoh 3dwox) or stereolithography 3D printer (e.g. Form 2).

  • Soap Bubble Liquid Recipes

In the Soap Bubble Wiki Page , it introduces variety of different bubble soap liquid recipes.

I followed the Mike's "Gooey Mix" as Gordon recommended on his post too.

You can also find all the product link for making this liquid in my material list sheet I shared.

Step 5: Assembly

Assembly

Once you have all the 3D printed parts and acrylic sheet cuts, and assembly components (bearing, cotton thread, spring, fan, MCU, etc.) Follow the process as shown on the pictures above.

  • Horizontal (3 ea) and vertical (6 ea) bearing assembly with 3D printed mounts (purple parts on the picture)
  • Fix the bearing mounts with bearings on the acrylic sheet for the front face structure
  • Insert the white acrylic rings that can be rolling around the bearing smoothly
  • Fix the pump and servo motor on the front face structure. (servo should be mounted on the 3D printed servo mount first)
  • Assemble 3 pulleys on the front structure (it has three holes matching with the pulley's inner hole diameter)
  • Cut the cotton string to be 3 threads and tie them with spring
  • Fix the other end of spring on the 3 points and make the thread go around the pulley. (The spring has a role of maintaining the enough tension on each string (always should be tight)
  • Tie the string ends to the white acrylic ring's hole. Make sure to have the 3 strings are crossing each other forming a triangle. All the thread should contact each other on the 3 points of triangle.
  • Fix the servo pulley (blue part on the picture) on the servo's shaft
  • Circle around the pulley with a fishing line about 2 cycle, and make a cross at the end (The fishing line connects the motion of servo and acrylic ring working as a driving belt.
  • The each end of the fishing line should go round the white acrylic ring and fixed on it with a spring (this spring works as tension keeper)
  • Cut a copper tube and connect it with the pump's outlet to guide the soap liquid around the strings
  • Assemble a DC fan in the middle of the back structure of the machine
  • Put the outer structure (3D printed) around the back structure and glue it using a epoxy glue
  • Cover the top with the front face structure assembled with servo, pump and strings.

Connect the DC motor driver with the pump and DC fan. Connect the microphone with amplifying board and servo to microcontroller (e.g. teensy, Arduino, etc.)

Step 6: Test and Have Fun!

Test and Have Fun!

Now it's all assembled and ready to be run!

The input for the machine is your speech and the output is opening of iris creating a soap membrane and running of fan to blow it out.

Make sure all the power is correctly connected, check the polarity before run the machine.

Depending on the fan's speed and the iris size (soap membrane surface area), the size of bubble and its emission motion are varied. I'd recommend to run several times to tune the parameter of fan speed and run timing in relation with the servo actuation for iris mechanism open/close.

Sometimes, the machine makes very funny motions like a teddy bear snoring with bubble coming out from his nose.

The material list I shared also includes the parts needed for making the machine mobile with Lipo battery, so try with that and playing with it walking around outside.

Have fun! and Talk through Bubbles!

The fact that the messages are coded to stay on-screen is probably the selling feature for me. I am struggling really hard with the MV equivalent because I often have treasure chests near the map-edges and the messages would always go over the visible screen. So I had to make all treasure popups have a fixed position on the screen for continuity sake. So it's great to see that this issue is resolved for MZ, for what its worth atleast. Great work as always, Galv!

What a classic plugin, I've used your message styles plugins in many of my unfinished VX Ace projects back in the day. Thanks for providing us with one for MZ, I look forward to seeing what else you make in the future.

This is great, I was waiting for the MZ port as I loved it for MV! It doesn't seem to be compatible with the VisuStella Message Core unfortunately. It returns "TypeError Cannot set property 'x' of null" Otherwise it works great!

Fantastic job Galv, like always! Definitely using this!

Hope it can be made compatible with visustella message core and zoom plugins. Then it would be perfect.

Anyone said: You're contacting the wrong person, I think. If you want a plugin to be compatible with VisuMZ, you're probably better off contacting them. They can see & access their code, Galv can't. Click to expand...

I have massive respect for you Galv! I'm so happy to see new features with plugins being brought over and am super excited for whatever updates you have planned! ♥ Thank you as always for providing for the community!  

I hope magic shards menu comes back too. Its one of my fav plugins of yours. =/ Atm I try to find out how to code myself in js for mz... But I got no idea where to even look or start x- x I want to make my own plugins at some point. Or learn how to port mv to mz plugins.

I've re-written a bunch of the code and also added: - plugin calls that can change pop message and normal message windowskin and arrow graphics separately during the game. - added ability to add within the \pop tag: a y offset value, windowskin and window arrow graphics. These are used to change just the individual message the tag is in. Updates are all in version 1.3 download found in the link in original post.  

Oh my goodness these updates are super awesome! Great work, you did this so fast. The window changing and y offset is going to work wonders for me since I have big sprites and small sprites in my game. ♥
