This morning we had a work in progress meeting for the self promotion brief.
I took in the little mock-up book that I had made (pictured below) and showed it to Jonny and Pete. The general feedback for my idea was pretty good and they had a couple of suggestions for improving the pacing of the pages:
-Put the double page spread (red riding hood and the wolf) in the middle
-Make the cinderella image slightly smaller and add a backdrop to contrast more with the page next to it
After listening to everyone else's ideas and feedback I came up with a few other changes I also wanted to make:
- Change the front cover to something a bit bolder: forest scene, with title in white circle laid on top?
- Also include a postcard or 2: 1 image of a character, and 1 with the "Once upon a time" typography piece?
- Make stickers/labels to put on the back of the postcards and on the envelopes
I also need to work on something for the envelope, which I'm thinking could be an illustration of a looking glass as a frame for the address.
I'll be working on this for the rest of today and tomorrow, ready to get them posted by monday morning.
