21/04 Group tutorial

Main points from group tutorial for 505:

  • Creating both book cover illustrations and inner illustrations doesn't particularly display any unique understanding of applied book illustrations. With this in mind and given the time remaining, there's no point in making inner illustrations
  • Also I've been designing cover illustrations with paperback books in mind, yet I've been making full-colour inner illustrations. These two types of illustrations wouldn't really exist with each other unless I started to consider deluxe editions.
  • Focus on the box set as the main product and begin to design other things around it - shop window displays, purchase bags, bookmarks, point of sale. A lot of these can just be mocked up.
  • I forgot to make the spines and backs of the book covers, so start designing the covers with those in mind from the get-go.
