So I
decided to read 'Sea of Ghosts' a great book by Alan Campbell. While I was
reading this book I started to gather descriptions of characters, weapons,
interesting scenes etc. This then formed the foundations for my project as my
aim is design various parts of the book to show I can illustrate and design
following a description while also using creativity to come up with interesting
designs.
After reading the book and compiling the reference document from the book
I began creating my project plan deciding on what exactly I will be doing for
my Honours project, and also working out a time schedule to help plan and
organise myself. I quickly began to realise that I needed to cut my outcomes in
half as I had set myself far too much to achieve over the two semesters, so
things had to be cut down and shifted around. I’m fairly confident that I’ll be
able to get the work done in time, but I need to get good start as soon as
possible and keep up the momentum.There was one more factor in my
schedule I had to account for, printing my work into a book to display the
concept art. This is a problem because most online book printers needed around
10 business days to deliver, so I have had to shift the schedule around again
and account for getting the book put together and ready to be sent so that I
will get it by the deadlines.
If all
things go to plan, my next post will be showing mood boards and thumbnail
sketches for possible character designs... looking forward to it!
