Last week we had a short introduction to our next task which is to design a children’s picture book. Growing up I obviously interacted with lots of these kinds of publications however this came to a holt probably when i was about 4/5 years old. Since then I haven’t really seen many. This week I put the branding design on hold and looked into a few popular books, some of which I recognised, some I didn’t. Books like The Very Hungry Caterpillar, Not Now Bernard and Elmer are all books I can remember vaguely perusing in nursery. The stories I couldn’t really remember however the pictures are quite easy to recognise. One thing that will be interesting is that, up until this point, my designs have been targeted at an older audience, therefore the images need to look professional. Publications for children however do not. This considered, I may try picking up a pencil myself for this task as thus far I have only used a computer. Now may be the time to try.
