Graphic Design
These are projects made for school or freelance work that include my original illustrations. This collection contains mock ups for proposed projects and promotional material.
Below are some of the spreads I completed for this project. They are in no exact order, and combine finished pages with their first concepts.
In these spreads, my main goal became trying to cut down as much text as I could, and pulling together a consistant and readable style. This is evident in this last spread of mine, where the left page had too much text grouped together, and the art on the right page made the text hard to see.
The process throughout the semester was one of endless cutting down and revising to make the most polished concept possible.
The Ideation
When my Children's Book Illustration course began, our first task was to go into bookshops and study the types of children's book we wanted to create. I gravitated towards nonfiction, and took notes on how information was conveyed to a younger age group. We then had to create many pages of ideation and composition.
This is a page from the "history of meteorology" I had to cut. I'm a history nerd and would have loved to make this a part of the book, but then the book would just have been about the science of meteorology instead of the actual storms.
