About the Author- Developing roughs

Today we had another feedback session about our roughs in group peer tutorials, where we could discuss our work and how to progress for the finals

What were my concerns?
- What media would work best? Do they all need to be the same? Does it need to be black or is dark grey ok?
- Will having two spot illustrations and one solid background work?
- Are my illustrations clear enough to show a message and narrative?

What did we decide?
- Could try having a solid background with negative space on the hand?
- Pencil and gouache work best- just gouache loses definition
- Need to be careful with colours on rocks with mouths- TWO COLOUR
- Hand works better in pencil- more fluid
- It's ok to have two spot and one solid illustration- solid could work as main illustration

Other questions/ what next?
- Kat suggested I try using tracing paper for the colour and scanning it in separately to the main drawings to play around with compositions, which I will definitely try
- Develop hand and moon as landscape then drop one, and develop brain for square and try rocks with mouths as portrait
