Group Tutorials

Today we had group tutorials looking at the roughs we have made for this brief. The tutorial helped me to know where to go next. I want to make a book as the roughs I have made are narrative based. Even though I have been working towards telling a story up until this point all the images I have made have been separate with the overall order an afterthought rather than a solid format to work to. It was mentioned in the tutorial that I should make a storyboard and re draw my ideas in the page layout  that I will be using so I can see how they will work and if I want to use single pages or double page spreads. I will also need to refine me ideas and decide which will combine best to make the narrative work. I can then print them off and see how they look in the final format.

I want to fit quite a lot into this book but really want to avoid the images feeling too busy or oversaturated with imagery. I am thinking of using the cover the kick start the narrative. I am going to see if this works when I make my mock ups. I don't want it to be a crucial piece of information but I would like it to set the scene for the rest of the pages. If this works it will free up more pages and help me to tell the story. I will make some mock ups then try to get some other peoples opinions on whether it works or not.
