Development: Second Draft

To develop my second draft from my first I need to make it much more graphic based and think of the pages as one instead of them separated. To do this I have to join the 2 page together to make then one and then work on them. I also have use elements in this draft like pen and paper to give it a reality feel.

However I still needed to develop this draft, so I sat down with Miss Stower and went

 through each page and she told me what I needed to improve upon. This is the outcome:

Page 1:

Look at some old books and take the idea and add to my front cover

Page 2/3:

Add some text to make it more interesting 

Page 4/5:

Add a “…” to the end

Add a boarder to “Jazz it up”

Page 6/7:

Clean up the cutting around the lens

Make typography more interesting

Change the background 

Page 8/9:

Change background

Page 10/11:

Change background on name of creatures 

Page 12/13:

Change colour of white line paper

Make money fall on paper

Page 14/15:

Clean up paper clips

Make pencil bigger

Page 16/17:

Make picture bigger to fill negative space 

Page 18/19: 

Add something to it (text)

Page 20:

Look at some old books and take the idea and add to my back cover. 

All of this helped me to improve the final draft.

Development: First Draft

For my first draft I wanted to go down the road of old fashioned and give the feeling that this book has been lost and has grown old over time. So first I decided to make the background which was coffee stained paper, which I scanned in to the computer. Also for the front cover I took a photo of a leather bag and then uploaded it and worked with it in photoshop.

What you see above is all the pages for my first draft. When I showed this to Miss Stower she did not think that it worked and did not like it. The pages were to separated from each other and they needed to be thought of as being one page and cut into the two pages that I needed. Also Miss Stower thought that they should be more graphic, layer, shape, different background, elements to my work. Furthermore she thought that I should pull the creatures into the 21th century, "What would the creatures be like today?" Here is the idea that Miss Stower showed me to inspire me on how to change my piece of work.
