I am going to look at some illustrations in books, looking at how illustrators translate quotes or text, pieces of news into an image.
The first thing I am going to do is to look at images I may want to use, and read into the critical theory of Narratology.
After a week of looking through some narrative illustrations and critical theory we had to send Anna email with a brief reading list and Methodology.
Bu then I had some concerns regarding exactly what I was looking at.
general concerns about Anna's theory unit.
the difference between Graphics and Illustration- Topic id Narratology- But I am concerned about whether this is going to be too Illustration based rather than Graphic based.
My proffessional project consists of graphic Illustration, as I am concerned with about whether or not people would consider this as an Illustration theoretical piece, or a Graphics one- as i have been looking at the likes of Paula Rego. Need help!
maybe I need to look at Graphic Illustrators- but how could I give a critical evaluation on this?
Other things I could look at is the aspects of editorial design:
- Type
- Images within a magazine/ newspaper- fashion and semiotics based essay- but did this last year.
- Could it be that I look at text and images and how the text is interpreted by the image- photography based images. But even though it's not illustration, it still interpreting text.
Meeting with Anna- I spoke to Anna about my thoughts about looking at more Graphics based stuff, rather than illustration based imagery. I had to wait until after the group to make my final decision, I said that I wanted to look more at interpreting text with imagery, I said I had looked at this sort of thing for my professional project, and Anna suggested looking at Eduardo Recife and the journal of New Scientist, which I will look at, and then I need to email Anna by friday with images I am looking at.
