Tutorial

Today I had a tutorial with Georgina, just to show my rough ideas before the pitch  the next week. She liked both ideas but she had suggested improvements for both.

Much Ado

Georgina suggested that only having the two characters was a little simple. I could perhaps add an outline or shadow of two more characters, one with each of the originals, to add another layer of interest and narrative to the piece. Instead, I decided to fully add in he second characters rather than just hint at them. This filled the page more whilst still keeping it simple and made the previous version look too simple to be of any interest anymore. It did also add more narrative as it made it look more like the two characters were being pushed together by the meddling second pair.

Fairies

For the fairies, Georgina liked the idea of the character sat to the side writing about them but to make her seem more like she was bringing this world to life through her writing, Georgina suggested I put a gradiant over the image so it went from black and white to full colour. I did this with the rough sketch and it definitely worked to add that bit of narrative, to make it seem like the world was coming to life the further through the image you went.
