Year 3 - Project 2: The Future Of Illustration - Illustration: The Next Ten years | Twenty Twenty Two

Report for the future of illustration project.

I felt like doing something type based. I kept it really plain and simple. Hopefully in an elegant way.

Front cover. Font is OPS DIN.

Pages 1&2. Outlining the early steps of the project.

It looks a little odd when it's spread out like this on a flat design because you don't get the fold and the two sides sort of merge together. It looks better in the real book. I'll get some photos up.

Pages 3&4 in which we find the script for the voice-over.

Pages 5&6. Outlining the later stages of the project.

Throughout the book I used different point sizes to emphasise some words and different tracking and spacing to make the layout and type seem a little erratic and free-formed in the same way that the illustration was. I think the coloured bars hold it together well.

The back cover is plain so I'm not posting it.

Here instead is the jacket for the booklet.

Photos of time-lapse set up. Mostly with Holly's thumb in the way.

Group meeting 2 had some massively productive outcomes. We smashed the whole project in one day. 

More ideas, sketches, set up and production. Here it is...

Enjoy.

Year 3 - Project 2: The Future Of Illustration Part 1 - The iSlab

6 day project to 'imagine where Visual Communication might be in 2022' focusing on illustration.

Didn't initially like the brief, but once I started getting some ideas on the go it became enjoyable. 

Here's the first one I've put together. It's an A2 tablet used for drawing that essentially would allow you to create piece that look genuinely hand drawn in a digital format by having paper texture settings and things like that. More info on the image.

I have no affiliation with Apple, iPod or iPad. There are no plans to put this product, or anything similar, into production as far as I am aware. Just in case anyone gets confused. Although it would be fun to start a rumour that Apple are bringing this out.
