Page Measurements

(click on the picture for a larger view)

We left a 1cm bleed around the perimeter, as well as centerfold for printing. Another 1 cm by 1 cm box kept by the left and right of the page for page number.

[Choong Yee] A sample page from our storybook

Hi all, this is a sample page from our storybook (Kudos to Aiysha for her great artwork). As presented in the lecture last week, we have combined pastel colours and watercolour brushes to bring out the fairy tale effect.

Fonts were carefully selected so that it is legible yet appealing to our target audience.

[aiysha] layout and works

Oui! Blogspot!

The dateline is this Thursday and the word "rush" does not even register in my head right now! That's because when you've been exposed to something for too long you grow more resistant to it. Hence, I am resistant to rush! Aha!

Ok onwards, the layout of the cover page. We decided to change the title of our story from "The Big Fight" to the cornier but more appropriate "The Tale of Two Brothers" simply because, well, the fight was not THAT big anyway.

So now for sketches.
So it'll be a huge continuous spread so that means a lot more painting.

[Miranda] Our title is...

changed from A BIG FIGHT to...

A Tale of 2 Brothers

[Meilin] DONE!

We have finally coughed up a pretty awesome story board. Okay it may be a little long and 'cheeem' but kids these day are reading more and more complex stuff.

Another highlight.

Page 19 went from just a picture of Robbie fighting a huge wolf

TO...

Robbie whipped out the Magic Branch. Robbie defeated the Wolf!

TO...

Robbie summoned up his courage
It was such a feat for a boy his age
He whipped out the Magic Brunch
(It indeed packed a punch)
BANG!
CLANG!
BOOM!
POOF!
Robbie defeated the Big Grey Wolf!

Thats good no? Onomatopoeia rocks.
