Record a dramatic reading of any book or comic scene

There are many ways to bring our favourite books and comics to life, but one of the best is to read them out loud, to deliver and savour the emotion and the drama, especially in their most powerful scenes.

Make and share a video in which you give us a dramatic reading of any scene in any book or comic - the more dramatic and intense, the better.

If you ever saw Sideshow Bob read from The Man In The Iron Mask on The Simpsons, we're going for the same energy here, but a bit longer. Your video must be at least 45 seconds in length, ideally more, and you don't have to show your face, but you may not use an AI voiceover for this one - the whole point is to get your most human, most emotional delivery. Give us some drama!

Submit either a video or a social media post containing a video. Suggested tags: #JustCreators, #books, #comics. Tag our social accounts too (details below)!
