Instructional illustration layouts

It was a real challenge getting down my thoughts/ideas in relation to the instructional illustration and even more so thinking about how to do the page layouts! So I roughly drew out the elements of each page individually so I could physically move each part around to see how they could fit on the page together. It's not perfect as such but it has actually given me a better idea of how I could do it... these photos aren't the best and they all seem to be the wrong way around but it's good enough!

















Colour & collage is another thing entirely but for now this is good! I currently have no idea how I'm going to do the protest poster activity page but is probably something I will probably have to come back too at the end!

Fairy tale world research

 Shrek -  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EsqpVl0TVek&ab_channel=KhoiTran Shrek is a great example of a fairy tale world that has both high levels of creativity but also connections to real life - some items of food recognisable (both as food and as non-food related items - eyeballs as olives) with quirky twists, animals that are recognisable (donkeys, mice, pigs etc.) with the difference being that all animals can talk. They also all seem to act like human beings, in their actions and ways of speaking, which is interesting and confirms the idea that it is a fairy tale world.  Shrek is also quite big on characters like fairies and fairy god mothers which is very common within the fairytale world. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rlK-BySadHk&ab_channel=AshwinSookmaneea There are also often creatures like dragons and quests to beat them to save the damsel in distress!
