Applied Illustration: Character Study

Today I've been drawing images of Anne Hathaway and Mia Wasikawa's interpretation of Jane Eyre set roughly in the same time frame as The Scarlett Letter. This will help my understanding of what the characters within my leaflet will look like. I've decided that due to time constraints 8 pages is a bit ambitious so instead of creating a small zine for the event, I will instead create a leaflet that will be given away at the release of the film/tv event instead. It will follow two women as they head to release of Hester Pryne from prison (where the tale begins). I felt that this would work as it would whet the viewers appetite before the film - they would already have an interest when the film begins.

This leaflet will have four narrative pages within, and have the necessary logos etc on the exterior. I imagine a good size will be around A5 with glossy Digigreen stock that weighs 150gsm per sheet.

I also set about drawing some environments using digital tracing. These environments look somewhat static, ordered and straight. I'll have to find a way to resolve this issue.

Here is my process from today:
