question:What changes did Dorfman make to adapt her animated short film, Flawed, into a graphic memoir? Generate according to: The Halifax-based artist’s graphic memoir tells the story of a woman whose teenage insecurities about the size of her nose are triggered when, as an adult, she falls in love with a plastic surgeon. The Firefly Books hardcover, out Sept. 1*, was adapted from Dorfman’s 2010 NFB animated short film of the same name. While the book hits the same beats as the animated version, the film shows Dorfman’s hands illustrating the story in an accelerated time-lapse. Those evolving sketches, Dorfman says, were “as intrinsic to the story as the final illustration.” It was a technique that didn’t translate to the page. “We decided pretty quickly to create an entirely new aesthetic, style, design, and even story in some ways,” Dorfman says. Working with a limited colour palette, she redrew all of the images using gouache, a paint that looks much like watercolour but with a heavier pigment. “The colours are super punchy,” Dorfman says. Flawed will be the fifth book in Firefly’s NFB series, following The Cat Came Back, George Hunter’s Canada, My Grandmother Ironed the King’s Shirts, and the forthcoming Threads, out in September. *Correction, July 6, 2018: An earlier version of this story listed the on-sale date as Oct. 2.

answer:Dorfman adapted her animated short film Flawed into a graphic memoir by creating an entirely new aesthetic, style, design, and story. She redrew all of the images using gouache to create a limited color palette with super punchy colors. Unlike in the film, which showed Dorfman's hands illustrating the story in time-lapse, the book does not feature this technique. The graphic memoir tells the story of a woman whose teenage insecurities about the size of her nose are triggered when she falls in love with a plastic surgeon as an adult. Flawed will be the fifth book in Firefly's NFB series.
