We have a project in the MIME program to allow folks to do just that
www.bubblebubblecomics.com
This project is just beginning but there are all sorts of plans for the
equivalent of visual chat/comic design.
last year we had a project described as 'open source animation' which
would also give users/readers/interactors the opportunity to visually
design even if they couldn't visually design
www.zonecomics.com
Might also examine the way the tool 'painter' is constructed with playback
capabilities.
I think you can 'study' this concept but you will always be 'behind' the
concept. the only way to actually study this concept effectively is to
learn to design yourself or associate with the folks who are building the
future, the designers.
