NARRATIVE ILLUSTRATION

Due Week 15

_____________________________________

Overall Description:

Create an interior illustration or a book cover for your story reboot. Choose a dramatic moment in time that captures the mood, genre and character of your story.

• Final Art can be made using any combination of traditional drawing / inking skills and digital coloring.
• Final art must make full use of value and read as a finalized piece of art work.
•  Final art may be in Color or in Black and white.  If in color a limited palate is highly recommended.

Create 2-3 concept sketches for narrative illustrations featuring the same character(s) in different moments in time from your story. Be sure the settings and situations are different. Use the characters you created for Part 1.

These illustrations by “golden age” illustrator Arthur Rackham are a great example of this. Here his version of Alice is depicted at various moments in the story and from different points of view.
