Project 4, Term 1: Text and Image

After spending all night, not getting much sleep and this morning, i have managed to complete 5 book covers and the poster.

I am really pleased with the outcome, i spent a lot of time drawing from my photographs and recreating some of m drawings. However i did struggle with the text part of the project, as i wasn't sure what to use and how to display it. In the end i decided to go for sweet and simple approach for the project.

I have not finished the rest, but i will defiantly complete them as soon as possible.

Here are the scans of some of my finished pieces:

Feedback:

- Need to look at book covers, for inspiration on layout.
- Need to create a system of grids/tables to contain text and information.
- Need to think about the spine of the book.

Project 4, Term 1: Text and Image

Today we were given our final part of the brief, which is to create a series of book covers including the back cover, spine and front cover and one poster to promote the series.

I am quite daunted by the task, as this has to be finished by 3pm tomorrow, but i will try my best to complete it.

After a lot of decision making, these are some examples of the layouts, they are not finished but they are a start.

Day 1 - I found today very tiring but i quite enjoyed looking at the different locations.

ach area seemed to be developing or developed in some way.

Day 3 - I really enjoyed the location today, i decided to choose Greenwhich Park, this was a really nic
e area to sit in and observe, i found
i very relaxing.
