Hello again,
I enjoyed doing this project. I’ve always had a love for drawing and coloring pictures to the style I wanted them to be. I like illustrating but it’s very time-consuming. Making sure every spot is colored correctly and every line is to perfection takes time and patience. I am a hands on type of person so trying to mimic what’s on my paper to what’s on the computer screen was kind of difficult for me. I think this would be part of my dream job not the main task because I couldn’t see myself just doing this day in and day out for the rest of my life.
The objective of this project given by my Digital Illustration teacher was to remake a page out of a children’s book. I picked Rapunzel because I used to love this book while growing up. I was really excited about completing this composition, I even printed out the story word for word and watched the remake movie Tangled to get inspiration. I took aspects from both the book and movie. The hardest thing about this assignment believe it or not was the clouds and stars. I wanted it to look like a clear, starry night. I didn’t really plan my color scheme, it kind of just happened. Although I wouldn’t advise this method to fellow graphic designers, it’s always a good rule-of-thumb to sketch first so you know where you’re going with the layout. I’m very pleased with the results.
