Hello Everyone,
Hope all of you doing well.
This is my project A done. It was really good project but I had some difficulties at begging with understanding the project.
This project was about creating and designing a brochure or booklet titled by Hero’s journey. All Graphic student watched two movies about Hero’s Journey, it was difficult for me when I watched because I did not understand how I am going to create a storytelling based on Hero’s Journey. Also, how I will show it in the folding proses and so on. As you now I love researching so I researched about Hero’s book & Hero storytelling but it was not that clear. I did my best in researching but that was not clear tell I ask my friends at the class about it. I understood the project little bit but I was really confused. I asked my professor too but I am was not that sure. So, I worked hard to do what know and to complete what I started with. I used Pinterest, Google, Instagram, and Youtube to search for examples. I did more than three different studies of booklets, storytelling’s layout, sketches for my characters and typography. First, I decided to do a book with folding pages inside. I started doing this but the result was not that good because the illustration took long time to be done and I did not have enough time to done with it. Also, when I sow students work there were amazing, there examples help me a lot in understanding the project, so I decided to change layout of you book to something more creative and unique also to something has more nice folding and has call adventure to the audience. I decided to create something looking like a book from outside and from inside looks more likely like a pages but no color pages so that I can put inside cards that have my illustrations and my call adventure at the backside of the card. I changed my style from coloring the illustration using Adobe photoshop through showing the shades of the landscape, cloths, texture and so on to technique of filling colors in the empty spaces directly. I chose black and white colors in coloring my illustrations so that it gave since of old black and white days. This help me more to done with my work faster than using the old technique. When I done with this part I asked my friends and family to give me feedback about my final print. I got some feedback about changing the colors in the way of make it more brightness and white.
I am really happy with the final result for my inside design but I phase second issue which is the cover page. I thought about using material to cover my page and that what I used, I used black martial and I covered the cover page. Next, the title of the book I did not know where I can put it exactly so I ask some my friends about the title how I can do it what is the better to do. So, most of them chose color print on the material. I chose blue color to make difference than just using B/W colors.
So, this the result of my Hero’s Journey Book :

Hope you like my final work.
